Lagos Government Reveals How Chrisland Student Died

The Lagos State Government on Thursday confirmed that the 12-year-old Chrisland School student, Whitney Adeniran died from asphyxia and electrocution.

The state government revealed this in a statement released from the office of the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Moyosore Onigbanjo (SAN).

It was stated that the report issued by the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital on Wednesday showed that Whitney died from asphyxia and electrocution.

In the statement, it was noted that the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) had been instructed to issue legal advice on the matter with immediate effect.

The statement reads, “The Lagos State Government commiserates with the deceased family while reassuring Lagosians that anybody found culpable would immediately be charged to court.”

This is coming after the mother of the 12-year-old girl, Blessing Adeniran confirmed that her daughter died from electrocution.

She noted that an autopsy carried out on her daughter showed that she died of electrocution.

Mrs Adeniran said, “I want to thank everyone for your support, your calls and messages have helped us go through this very difficult period.

“The autopsy result is out and Desola was electrocuted. My daughter died of electrocution. I have been subjected to trauma for the past two weeks. Tomorrow will make it three weeks since my baby died. The school made me think I was crazy They started pushing the narrative of she was sick; she was sickly. They sent letters and publications out.

“People insulted me and my family. My child was electrocuted to death. I told the school I don’t want trouble. All I want is answers. They came to my house and knelt down.

“I begged, I pleaded, I said ‘Mrs Amao please, I don’t know how an autopsy is being done but I have browsed it and the image is scary. Please my daughter is already dead, don’t make me put her through that, they will butcher her. I beg you in the name of God, you are a mother, help me investigate and find out what happened.’

“She said she doesn’t know. They refused to investigate.

“My daughter was butchered for autopsy. She was opened up. They took part of her kidney, liver, stomach contents, blood, brain, and bone marrow. Omodesola was butchered just because Chrisland kept protecting their reputation.”
