A 38-year-old nursery school teacher arrested for defiling three minors has claimed he is not to blame because one of the minors made passes at him.
Olayinka Oluwadare Folarin took the young girls to the school toilet where he sexually molested them. Speaking during his interrogation yesterday, the paedophile said one of the little girls made a pass at him first.
“One of them made advances at me. You know how children play with you in a funny way. This thing is beyond me.” he said.
Folarin, who has been arrested before for molesting children, said he believes he’s under some demonic attack that pushes him to commit these acts and so shouldn’t be judged.
Though he displayed remorse for his actions, Folarin would occasionally flare up, saying: “I have been doing this for a long time. I feel terribly bad each time I did it but I could not stop it; why don’t you find a way of helping me. Is this meant to expose me? Some people should just think and reason with me. The person who has not sinned before should cast the first stone. If God did not forsake some people, I know he would not forsake me. I am a changed person now.”
On how he carried out his evil act, Folarin said he would invite the little girls into the toilet, place them on the wash hand basin, lubricate their vagina with his hair cream and fondle them but says he never penetrated them with his manhood, a claim the police are refuting because medical examinations on the little girls show their hymens not to be intact.
“I never penetrated them. I only used my manhood to rub their private parts. Yes, I used my hair cream to lubricate my organ to stimulate myself.” He went on to suggest the children’s virginity might have been taken somewhere else.
Confirming the incidents, Oyo State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Olabisi Okuwobi Ilobanafor said:
“The suspect had engaged in multiple defilement and all the victims said the same thing that he always abused them twice a week since last year. The third girl was lured by the suspect to cover his illicit affairs. The third girl he abused saw a note he wrote to one of the two girls when she was sweeping the floor and asked what was happening. The teacher then collected the paper [and] for fear of being exposed, he recruited her into the group” she said.
Due to the seriousness of his crime, Folarin was transferred to the state Police headquarters where further investigations will be carried out.
