A source who spoke with the punch on condition of anonymity disclosed that the incident led to an uproar among the students which eventually caught the attention of the state government.
“The students’ protest against the unfortunate event caught the attention of the state government. This led to the intervention of the state Deputy Governor, Noimot Salako-Oyedele, who paid a visit to the rape victims, at the state hospital where they are receiving treatment,” the source said.
Reacting to the incident, the school’s Registrar, Dapo Oke, announced the suspension of the ongoing second-semester examinations.
