Innocent Onwuegbule, the owner of Delta State-based Great Leaders International School, has been arrested for injecting and mutilating the private part of a four-year-old female pupil.
According to an Instagram video posted on Wednesday by human rights activist Harrison Gwamnishu, the incident happened on October 4, 2023.
The video, which features a short interview with the mother of the child and the girl herself, reveals that Onwuegbule took the girl to the toilet, injected her and cut her with a pair of scissors.

“The guy who owns the school took the 4-year-old girl into the toilet, used scissors to tear the girl’s private part and injected her on the buttocks. Although they have arrested the man, nobody knows what the man used the girl to do. As the girl reached the house, she was urinating up and down. There was blood too. When the mother checked, she saw that her private part had become something else,” said Gwamnishu.
Also in the video, the girl’s mother demands justice for her child while stating that there have been suggestions for her to settle out of court.
“Dem dey tell me say make I go settle with the man. I no know wetin I wan take settle with the man. Na people [dey tell me that]. I need justice because the wey the matter take be now, dem dey look me like say I no get money, nobody to talk for me. That is why they are doing all those things,” she said.
The child’s voice could be heard saying, “Uncle school touched me. Uncle school cut me [with] the scissors … in the toilet.”
