Four years later, an Islamic cleric who raped his five-year-old pupil is sentenced to life in prison.
Abdulsalam Salaudeen, an Islamic cleric who raped a five-year-old pupil in Lagos in 2018, has been sentenced to life in prison, ending a four-year wait for justice.
The Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence Court of Lagos sentenced Salaudeen on Wednesday, according to Mirabel Centre, Nigeria’s first sexual assault referral center.
The court equally ordered Salaudeen’s name to be registered in the state’s sex offenders’ register.
JUSTICE AT LAST!

Salaudeen, 43, committed the act at an Arabic school where he worked as an Islamic Studies teacher.
The teacher committed the offence on December 22, 2018, at a mosque premises in Igando, Lagos.
If the incident had not been reported to the police five days later, his actions would have gone unnoticed and unpunished.
A complainant also provided the police with video evidence showing Salaudeen, also known as Alfa, having anal sex with the female pupil while reporting the incident.
Nancy-Olive Tamuno, communications manager at Mirabel Centre, told FIJ, “We hope this marks a change in the justice system and the beginning of harsher punishments for sex offenders.”
“This ruling also gives more survivors hope that they can get justice.
“We also hope this serves as a deterrent to rapists and assaulters. The law will catch up to them and they will be punished.”
