What could have prompted a secondary school principal to conduct virginity tests on her female students with her bare hands remains a mystery to parents of the students of Ajuwon High School, near Akuta in Ogun state.
The principal was dragged to Ajuwon police station by parents of the students for carrying out virginity tests on their wards without their permission.
DailyPost gathered that the students took to the streets last week in protest of the principal’s action which took place in her office.
It was learnt that the principal, Mrs Aladeojebi accused most of them of promiscuity and later forced them to her office to carry out a virginity test on them with her bare hands.
An SS1 student who was in tears while narrating her ordeal to her parents accused the principal of using her hands to puncture her ‘honey pot’.
Subsequently, other parents were informed and the matter was reported to Ajuwon police station.
DailyPost gathered that Mrs Aladeojebi reportedly confessed of inviting a trained nurse to conduct the test, emphasising that an egg was used and not her hands.
“It is totally unacceptable for a school principal to conduct virgin test. Is that part of the school syllabus or was it ratified by the Ogun state government?” one of the witnesses asked in a rhetoric mood.
Furthermore, a parent stressed that the action was tantamount to sexual abuse, adding that most parents feared the case might be swept under the carpet.
However, all efforts to get an official statement from the police proved abortive as at press time.
