2 students of the Federal Government College, Ijanikin, Lagos State, have reportedly been infected with HIV and another pregnant after they absconded from school to lodge in hotels for s*x romps.

All the culprits comprising 7 males and 5 females were all boarding students and had on different occasions jumped the school’s fence, and lodged in town for days without being noticed by the school authority.

PUNCH reports that the students involved in the act are between the ages of 14 and 17 and are found to also be addicted to hard drugs like codeine, molly, among others.

Reports say that the escapades which have been going on in the school for more than three sessions, including the just concluded first term, came to the notice of the school authority after one of the students impregnated a female colleague.

Confirming the incident, some parents of the school blamed the school management for negligence and lamented an alleged plot to cover up the scandal.

The Chairman of the Parent-Teacher Association of the school, Olusola Tokede, confirmed that some students absconded from the school.He however, refuted claims that the school was trying to cover up the incident.

Tokede insisted that the students were caught by the school management at hotels on two different occasions after noticing their absence and some of the students involved were expelled, while others were suspended.

The PTA chairman also faulted the children’s upbringing from their respective homes and expressed surprise at how a 15-year-old student would be engaging in such immoral activities.

He said: “If parents failed to train their children, they will pollute others. Can you imagine a child between ages 15 and 16 having up to N1m in her account? They went to do twosome: two girls, one boy. They were caught before the end of last session. You can imagine that a 15-year-old that should be a virgin is already engaging in immoral activities. They are rotten from their various homes and we are working hard to stop them from polluting others.“

The Principal of the school, Tofunmi Akamo, has denied allegations of covering up the students caught in the sex romps.

Tofunmi told newsmen that the students, numbering 6, were picked up from the hotel by the school and the incident happened once.

She claimed that the school management noticed the absence of the students during an urgent roll call at the hostel adding that some have been suspended and others expelled.

She said: “The children are currently on indefinite suspension; that is the guideline recommended for them.

“One of the students was expelled because she was pregnant. We also expelled the boy that impregnated her.”

Meanwhile, the Director (Legal Services), Federal Ministry of Education, Grace Ekanem, in a letter which was obtained by TRIBUNE, promised to look into the case.
