Four teachers of Chrisland School, Ajah, Lagos, were yesterday arraigned before Yaba Chief Magistrates’ court for allegedly concealing a sex tape of a student (names withheld) recorded in Dubai.

The teachers, including three male and a female are Oladotun Sotundape, 56; Elesho Tajudeen; 32, Rhoda Olanipekun; 45, and Ajigboye Hammed, 41, were arraigned on a two count charge bordering on conspiracy and attempt to pervert the course of justice before Chief Magistrate Adeola Adedayo.

Officer in charge of the Legal Department at the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) Panti, Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Yetunde Cardoso, appeared with Mr Augustine Nwabuisi for the prosecution.

ASP Cardoso told the court that the defendants committed the offence on April 25, at Chrisland School, in Victoria Garden City, Ajah, Lagos.

The defendants pleaded not guilty to the charge.
