The bullied student of British Lead International School, Miss. Namtira Bwala, has sued over the incident of bullying and attack meted out to her in the school.
This came on a day some anti-corruption groups and civil society organizations who, in their comdemnation of the incident, described bullying in scholls as a long standing issue that must be tackled by governmet and stakeholders.
Consequently, Bwala in a letter by her solicitors, Deji Adeyanju and Partners, yesterday, said if the school authorities failed to sanction the students’ bullies within 48 hours of receipt of the letter, she would seek immediate and severe legal redress against it. “Regrettably, our client has once again, been subjected to physical attacks in the hands of these bullies, with the video of the act going viral on social media.
“Sequel to the foregoing, we have our client’s instruction to demand for the immediate investigation and the pronouncement of the stiffest possible sanctions in the student’s rule book, on Ms. Maryam Hassan, Miss Faliya and nine other students who have formed a cult of bullies in Lead British International School, Gwarimpa, Abuja.
”It is regrettable that insufficient action has been taken to address this problem. Bullying in schools is unacceptable and must be unequivocally condemned,” he said.
