BrandNewsDay Nigeria reports that many social media users are upset at the news coming out of Chrisland School in Victoria Island Garden City (VGC), Lagos State, Nigeria’s commercial city, after Ubi Franklin, a music executive raised the alarm of a possible r*pe of a 10-year-old girl.
This online news platform understands that the 10-year-old student in the Chrisland school girl video was on April 14 suspended by the school authorities after she engaged in s*xual intercourse with her co-learners.
The information obtained by BrandNewsDay Nigeria reveals that the Chrisland school girl video incident happened in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), during the World School Games in March.
When the news broke, the Nigerian cyberspace was dominated by search terms such as Chrisland school video, Chrisland school video Instagram, 10-year-old Chrisland girl video, Chrisland school viral video, and Chrisland viral video.
BrandNewsDay had reported earlier that a video clip involving pupils of the school who attended the World Schools Games, went viral last weekend. At the games, which took place in Dubai, UAE, five pupils of the school: a girl and four boys, were seen in a viral Chrisland school video.
Days after the Chrisland school girl video went viral, parents of the Chrisland Schools students who were involved in the viral Chrisland school video have seen the CCTV footage of what happened in the Dubai h*tel.
Adaure, a social media user, who claimed to be familiar with the development, said the issue became known to the school even before the students returned to the country.
Brand News Day reports that the claim was also confirmed by Shola Ogudu, the baby mama of Nigerian singer, Wizkid, whose son, Boluwatife, attends the school. Ogudu was also on the trip to Dubai with Boluwatife.
Adaure said even before the mother of the only girl involved in the scandal raised the alarm in a video that her daughter was r*ped under the influence of drugs, the school, in conjunction with the Lagos State Police Command and the Lagos State Welfare Department, had set up a panel to probe the issue.
The matter had generated social media outrage and sparked conversations around parenting. Her mother had claimed that prior to her trip to Dubai, her daughter was a virgin. The Lagos State government in response had shut down Chrisland schools shortly after the news circulated.
In a similar development, BrandNewsDay Nigeria ahead reported that the Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu-led Lagos State Government has directed the reopening of all Chrisland Schools in the Southwest State.
The Lagos State Commissioner of Education, Mrs Folasade Adefisayo, however, explained that the reopening of the school was to ensure that other students were not denied access to learning while an investigation into the issue continued. Adefisayo in a statement she signed, said the school’s Parent Teachers’ Association would be working on scheduled psychosocial support for the students involved in the immoral act.
The statement read, “The Lagos State Ministry of Education has directed that all Chrisland Schools shut for alleged misconduct of some students in Dubai be reopened from Monday, April 25, 2022.
The directive follows a review of the ongoing administrative investigation into the incident. Besides, it is to ensure that students are not denied access to learning when the new term begins on Monday, April 25, 2022.
“The State Government shut the schools for the safety of students and the staff and to ensure unhindered investigation of the incident.
“The Ministry of Education and other relevant agencies of the State, in conjunction with the school’s Parent Teachers Association, will be working on scheduled psychosocial support for the students.
“An extensive assessment of the school’s procedure, especially on external trips and excursions, is being made to identify safety gaps and prevent such incidents.”
