The management of Dowen college in Lagos state has reacted to the conclusion of investigation carried out over the death of an 11-year-old student of the school, Sylvester Oromoni Jnr .

On Wednesday, January 5, the Lagos state Department of Public Prosecution DPP in its legal advice exonerated the five students and staff of the school that were initially arrested over the death of Sylvester.

Parents of the deceased student say on his death bed, Sylvester mentioned five names of students that bullied him and gave him a substance to drink.

However, DPP in its statement said autopsy carried out on Sylvester’s body ruled out murder and also the toxicology carried out on his body found no harmful substance. The DPP exonerated the staff and students and ordered their release from custody.

Parents of the deceased student have come out to reject the decision of the DPP. While Sylvester’s mother called on God to give her justice (read here), his father said he would be heading to court to get justice.

In a letter sent out to parents of other pupils in the school. the principal of Dowen college, Dr Adebisi Layiwola, said the management of the school is thankful for the outcome of the investigations carried out and eagerly await the directive of the state Ministry of Education for reopening of the school for academic activities to resume. The letter reads;

Dear Parents/Guardians,
