The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, in a statement obtained by PUNCH , stated that the suspect was remanded at the Kirikiri correctional facility until February 18, when the case would continue.

The police spokesman added that the pupil had been taken to a medical facility for a proper check-up.

“The suspect, who was arraigned in Magistrate Court 1, Ogba today, January 9, 2025, had been captured in a viral video indecently treating and assaulting a three-year-old pupil of a primary school in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State.
