The Lagos State Government has said Chrisland Secondary School will remain shut as it investigates the death of Whitney Omodesola Adeniran.
Miss Adeniran, a 12-year-old student of the school, was said to have slumped during her school’s inter-house sport on February 9.
Following the controversial circumstance surrounding the student’s death, the state government through the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Moyosore Onigbanjo, immediately ordered a coroner’s inquest into the matter to ascertain the cause of death.
In a statement on Saturday, the State Commissioner for Education, Folasade Adefisayo, said without prejudice to the criminal proceedings, the decision to shut the school is to “further interrogate endangerment of students and other concerns.”
