MOLESTED 11-YEAR OLD BOY WOULD GET JUSTICE - DEEPER LIFE HIGH SCHOOL
The Deeper Life High School, Uyo, has said the 11-year old schoolboy who was allegedly molested would get justice.
The victim's mother, Mrs Deborah Okezie, had claims that some senior pupils molested her son by inserting their hands and legs into his anus and threatened to kill him if he reported to anyone.
Reacting to the claims, the Education Secretary of the school, Mrs Thelma Malaka, said investigation was ongoing into the matter and justice would be served when all findings have been finalised.
“Permit me to remind you that the Office of the Governor of Akwa Ibom State has taken over the investigation of the matter to ensure neutrality and a dispassionate outcome.
“We appreciate the concerted efforts of everyone who has shown support in the investigation thus far. We reiterate that we will be transparent and that justice will not only be served, it will be seen by all that it has been served.
“Recall that we had earlier suspended the principal of the affected campus and initiated an investigation into the matter. We decided to restrain ourselves from further comments after the first update because we thought it is sub judice to comment on a matter currently under investigation.
The Education Secretary, who stated that there was no attempt to cover up the matter, urged the public to expect the result of investigations.
“Deeper Life High School stands on the core value of integrity and uprightness and will not attempt to cover up any immoral act under any guise.
“We enjoin the public to be on the lookout for the final report as will be released by the appropriate authority soon. We believe that the government will share the final report once the investigation is completed,” she said.
