A 28-year-old man simply identified as Goddy, has been arrested by the police in Kubwa, a satellite town in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja for allegedly raping a student whom he tutored.

The 18-year-old unidentified victim was said to have been preparing for external examinations: Senior Schools Certificate Examination and JAMB.

In the course of her preparation, Goddy coached her in some subjects she had difficulty.

According to Daily Trust, the teacher who organizes extra-mural lessons for students in the area was said to have previously had carnal knowledge of the victim before the recent incident.

However, luck ran out on him in his last attempt at their tutorial centre in an unnamed secondary school in the area, Daily Trust reports.

A source said, “While in the classroom, Goddy caressed the girl and later removed her clothes before he had carnal knowledge of her.
