Frederick’s widow narrated how Jacob had been taking her daughter to his house at Ajuwon in Ogun to molest her.
The wife said the suspect on the run usually claimed that he needed to drop something at home.
She told the TrackNews that her husband went to school after he was asked to come to settle the matter.
“On February 1, my daughter told me that her school bus driver had been taking her to his house in Ajuwon.
“The driver would ask my daughter to sit on his lap, to raise her school uniform and to kiss him.”
Frederick and his wife went to the school on February 7, met the school owner, the driver and some of the teachers.
The proprietor confronted Jacob, recalling he returned late with the school bus the previous week.
The widow said after the girl narrated the same experience in front of everyone, the driver queried: “Me?..me?..me?”
Frederick then angrily slapped him, which led to a fight; Jacob pushed the father on his chest, causing him to fall.
“We rushed him to a hospital, where he was confirmed dead,” the widow disclosed.
