The Principal of Deeper Life High School Uyo, Mrs. Ndidi Solomon, and four others have been remanded in prison custody for unlawfully and indecently assaulting a student of the school, Don Davies Archibong.
The mother of Don Davies, Deborah Okezie, who revealed this on her Facebook page, said the court remanded the Principal of the school, vice-principal, housemasters, and one other person.
It would be recalled that they were all accused of involvement in the molestation, starvation, and sexual abuse of a JSS1 student of the institution, Don Davis in December 2020.
Okezie also disclosed that the judge ruled that the two accused minors should be tried in a Juvenile Family Court.
She wrote, “Today, all the suspects were arraigned afresh at the State High Court 7 Uyo and were asked to be remanded in the prison Custody with stiff bail conditions. So, the 5 of them, the Principal Ndidi Solomon, the Vice Principal, the wicked House masters, Akpan and others apart from the 2 minors were ordered to be detained in the prison custody until they met their bail conditions.
“Their lawyers were running up and down and cold caught all of them when the Judge gave the ruling. Further more, after a lengthy argument that lasted for about 3hrs, the judge ruled that the 2 accused minors, Old and Shalom will be tried at the Juvenile family Court, while the other 5 accused persons will be tried in the open Court where everyone shall see them. The matter has just began, with a different tone of music”.
