Any member of the public caught distributing online video footages of the pre-teen students of Chrisland School will be arrested and prosecuted, the Lagos state government has warned as it moves to checkmate spread of the Chrisland school child porn online.
The mother of the teen involved is alleging rape and accusing Chrisland school authorities of negligence. The now viral videos show explicit video recordings of two teenagers, students of Chrisland School, having sex while in Dubai, UAE to participate in the World School Games between March 10 and 13, 2022.

The Lagos government has already shut down all Chrisland schools across the state while police authorities said they have ordered investigations into the alleged case of rape.
The Chrisland School, a conglomerate of schools, was founded by Dr. Winifred Adefolahan Awosika.
Users of social media handles sharing the porn content whether on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, risk jail terms, Lagos ruled over the weekend worried that the clearly pornographic content could join the global child pornography stream; a multibillion-dollar industry and among the fastest-growing criminal segments on the internet.”
Child pornography is a sore part of the internet with millions of inappropriate contents particularly online child pornography packaged for an increasingly lucrative and exploitative industry.
While governments clamp down worldwide on child porno through “a combination of tactics, including statutory measures and filtering technologies, the “highly secretive nature of the child-porn industry, primarily through the dark web, makes it difficult to gauge the size of the child pornography market.”
“In several cases, “the dark web is only accessible by means of special software, allowing users and website operators to remain anonymous or untraceable.
“However, some estimates claim that there are more than one million child sexual abuse images available on the internet and this figure is escalating.”
