Adeyeye, a primary school teacher, was accused of defiling a five-year-old pupil inside the school’s toilet in Okitipupa. He was arrested by the men of the Ondo State Police Command on November 7, 2018.

The accused was said to have lured the victim to the school toilet, where he allegedly had a carnal knowledge of her.
