Police in Lagos have begun an investigation into a circulating sex tape involving minors in Chrisland School.
A mother had earlier claimed that, Chrisland concealed the matter from her.
Her 10-year-old daughter was involved in sexual activity with another male pupil during a trip to Dubai, which was organised by the school to take part in an international competition.
Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesperson of the police in Lagos, said in a statement on Monday that they have begun an investigation into the matter.
The police said their investigation will establish the “identities of the players in the video, the true incident in the video, the geographical location of the incident, the alleged threat to life against a student of the school, and circumstances surrounding the alleged repeated pregnancy tests conducted on a student without parental consent.
“The Command is equally taking cognizance of the cybercrime angle to the whole episode and would not hesitate to enlist the support of the Interpol in case, the need arises.
For a holistic and unbiased investigation, the Command shall be working with relevant ministries, departments, agencies and nongovernmental organizations.
Following the circulation of the children’s sex tape, the Lagos state government ordered the closure of the school.
The school has at least seven branches in the state.
The government also warned those in possession or circulating the sex tape to desist from such acts or be ready to spend 14 years in jail as prescribed by the law.
“In the meantime, all Chrisland schools within Lagos have been closed, for further investigations,”.
