The mother of three in a Premium Times report, said she removed her son from the school while he was in JSS1 first term because of the Dowen College bullies.
She also accused the school management of being concerned about school fees only and not the children’s wellbeing.
She added that her son’s case was not different from that of several other kids in the school, who she noted had faced similar bullying challenges and that she made the decision for the safety of her son whom she identified simply as Henry.
Sylvestre Oromoni, the father of the 12-year-old killed after he was brutally beaten by bullies in the school, also accused the school’s management of not asking after the wellbeing of his son while in the hospital fighting for his life.
Ms Ufondu also said: “After removing Henry, who is my only son, from the Dowen College, the school management never reached out to me, nor find out why I took my son away from the school; only his teacher who knew of the incident contacted me months after we withdrew the young man from the school.
“I have to tell the story now. Maybe it would serve as a lesson to other parents and save several other innocent children currently in the same situation since we can no longer trust schools’ management.,” she said.
TheNiche had earlier reported that the family of Sylvester Oromoni, the 12-year-old student of Dowen College, Lekki who died last Tuesday, has demanded a Coroner’s inquest into circumstances surrounding his death.
Sylvester’s family made the request through their lawyer, Fẹmi Falana (SAN), in a letter dated December 6 2021, sent to the Chief Coroner of Lagos State, Justice Mojisola Dada.
