Usman Galadima had been sleeping with 14 pupils he taught at Karabonde , Borgu LGA, Niger, threatening to kill the girls if they told anyone.
But they eventually found the courage to inform their headmistress Maimunat Tanko who in turn reported to the headmaster Abdullahi Toure.
The school management would later report the teacher to the social welfare department of Borgu LGA on 25th August, 2021.
Galadima appeared before the committee and confessed to the crime, during its meeting.
While the matter should be taken to the police, the state education board considered more investigation.
“The accused is presently with Child Rights Protection Agency. We have to move him from Borgu to Minna to save his life from mob action by parents and families of the victims. They are all furious over what he did to their daughters,” the board Public Relations Officer, PRO, Idirs Kolo said.
“The management of SUBEB has suspended him because, what he did cannot be swept under the carpet by anyone. The state Governor, Alh. Abubakar Sani Bello is not happy with the development,” Idris explained.
