  A 31-year-old serving NYSC member, Arsenal fan and teacher at a private school off Jakpa Road in Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State has been arrested and charged to court over the alleged defilement of a 6-year-old girl.


According to the child, the NYSC member took her to his apartment within the school premises on three occasions when her mother arrived late to pick her up from school and sexually abused her.


She also said he threatened to kill her if she told her mother. According to her, he used a white handkerchief with which he allegedly cleaned her blood to frighten her into keeping silent.


A medical examination reportedly confirmed that the child's hymen was broken and her vulva was ruptured.


A Delta-based activist who took up the case said the suspect was earlier today arraigned before High Court 1, Effurun, and remanded at the Warri Prison, Okere.


The case was adjourned until September 18, 2026, pending the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) advice.
