The suspects include the school principal, Mrs. Ndidi Solomon, Joseph Nseabasi, Akpan Johnson, Egor Wilson, Joseph Ikenna, and two others were arraigned before the court after the police had concluded its investigation into the case.

The case was adjourned to January 20, after the Magistrate in charge of the Court granted all the accused persons bail in the sum of N500,000 each while the two minors among them were released to their parents.
