Oyedele Nutai Joseph and his wife, Elizabeth Joseph, were arrested for bringing thugs into Toyon High School Ere village in Ado Odo area of Ado Odo ota local government, Ogun state, to attack a teacher, Abel Thomas, for allegedly abusing their son, Joshua Joseph. The couple were arrested after police at Ado Odo divisional headquarters received a distress call from the school that parents of one of their students were in the school with thugs and had beaten and injured one of the teachers, according to state police spokesperson DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, who confirmed the incident.
"Upon receiving the distress call, the DPO of Ado Odo division, SP Arowojeun Michael, swiftly led his men to the school where the incident occurred," Oyeyemi added.
“Preliminary investigation revealed that the teacher Abel Thomas, ‘moderately corrected’ an SS3 student of the school by the name Joshua Joseph who then went home to inform his parents that he was beaten by the teacher.
“Having heard from their son, the parents who felt that the teacher has no right to beat their son for any reason mobilized some thugs and stormed the school.
“On getting to the school, they descended heavily on the teacher, beat and injured him. They also damaged the back screen of a Toyota Corolla with registration number LSD 395 FV belonging to another teacher of the school Jolayemi Sunday.”
The PPRO, who said the injured teacher had been taken to the hospital for medical treatment, added that the state commissioner of police, CP Lanre Bankole has ordered that the escaped thugs who accompanied the couple to attack the school should be hunted for and brought to justice.
