A 40-year-old deaf teacher was yesterday arrested by men of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps for allegedly r*ping a 6-month-old baby in Yobe state. The commandant of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Muhammad Gidado Fari, has disclosed that a 40-year-old deaf teacher, identified as Shaaibu Yakubu Abdullahi, was yesterday arrested by men of the NSCDC for allegedly r*ping a 6-month-old baby in the Potiskum area of Yobe state.
The NSCDC commandant revealed that the deaf teacher allegedly connived with his 10-year-old student, who carried the baby to him from her neighbour’s house and he defiled her, adding that although Abdullahi denied the allegation, he was identified by the 10-year-old student in a group picture of staff and student taken in the school.
Yari who stated that the suspected r*pist was apprehended after a non-governmental organization, National Council of Women Society (NCWS), reported the situation to the corps, added that the matter has been reported to the state’s Ministry of Justice for prosecution as the case needs a professional in sign language to interpret.
The President of NCWS, Halima Kyari Joda, said the baby was taken to the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital for examination and treatment.
