Ogun state government suspends principal- virginity test

The principal of a secondary school in  Ifo Local Government Area, Ogun State, Olufunke Oladeojobi,has been suspended by the Ogun state government for allegedly conducting virginity test on her pupils.

Oladeojobi, a reverend, was said to have on December 10 invited a nurse to the school to carry out virginity tests on a group of 10 students.

The principal, who the pupils described as a strict disciplinarian, did not seek the consent of the parents/guardians of the pupils before conducting the test.

 

During the test, it was alleged that the principal and the nurse whose name could not be ascertained dipped their fingers into the pupils’ private part.

But the matter got out of hand when one of the pupils started bleeding after she had been ‘tested.’
