It was gathered that Galadima, said to be a serial rapist, had lured the pupil into the staff room after closing hours, and defiled her, before threatening to beat her up if she dared told her parents of what he did to her.

However, on getting home, the little told her father, Hashimu Mohammed, what her teacher did to her and her father reported the incident at the Faskari Police Division, leading to Galadima’s arrest.
