Sylvester Oromoni: Coroner Warns Parties Against Public Comments As Inquest Opens

The coroner investigating the controversial death of Dowen College student, Sylvester Oromoni (Jnr), has warned parties not to make any public comments on the matter, IgbereTV reports.

The coroner, Magistrate Mikail Kadiri, gave the warning on Saturday at the opening of the inquest at the Magistrate Court sitting in the Epe area of Lagos.

Counsel to the Oromoni family and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Femi Falana, immediately agreed and stressed that the coroner should be allowed to take charge of the entire proceedings without any external influence.

He said that it was only the court that was competent to speak authoritatively on the cause of death and pledged to inform the family to fully cooperate with the coroner’s directives
