EVA ADELAJA:Govt Removes Principal, Deputy, Four Teachers For ‘assaulting’ Pupil by daguru(m): 12:10pm On Mar 24, 2016 |
This is a follow up story on this https://www.nairaland.com/3000873/student-battered-principal-eva-adelaja JUSTICE SERVED, Govt removes principal, deputy, four teachers for ‘assaulting’ pupil FOR alleged inhuman treatment of a Junior Secondary Two (JS II) pupil, Principal of Eva Adelaja Girls Secondary School in Bariga, Lagos, Mrs C. O. Coker, Vice-Principal, Mrs Balogun and four teachers were yesterday removed by the government. The teachers are Mr Bello (Mathematics), Mrs Tejumaye (English language), Mrs Omoge (Physic Education) and Mr Bakare (Economics). Their removal followed the investigation into the flogging of the pupil, Ogechi Anyalewechi, on March 16 by the teachers on the principal’s instruction. Lagos State Ministry of Education Permanent Secretary Mrs Olabisi Ariyo said they were removed because of their complicity in the “assault saga”, adding: They will no longer work in the school from Thursday, March 24 (today)”. Ogechi was flogged on her bare buttocks following an altercation with the school’s Head Girl. The 14-year-old pupil got into trouble after slapping back the Head Girl, who reported her to the school. Besides being caned, Ogechi was made to cut grass for over four hours. Ogechi suffered body wounds and was taken to Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), Ikeja. When the incident became public, Commissioner for Youth and Social Development Princess Uzamat Akinbile-Yussuf directed the Directorate of School Social Services of her ministry to probe it. A fact-finding team led by a director, which visited the school, on Tuesday, indicted the principal and the teachers. Yesterday, Oghechi, her parents, the headgirl, the principal and the teachers appeared before a panel chaired by the ministry’s Permanent Secretary, Mr Hakeem Muri-Okunola. Mrs Ariyo was in attendance. The head girl, it was learnt, confessed that she slapped Ogechi and apologised for her action. According to Princess Akinbile-Yussuf, “the Director of the School Social Services on my instruction went to the school to carry out on the spot investigation following which all those involved including the principal, the head girl, Ogechi, her parents and Tutor-General of Education District 2, were on Wednesday March 23 (yesterday), invited before a panel chaired by Muri-Okunola and his education ministry counterpart, Mrs Ariyo was also there. “The head girl confessed that she slapped Ogechi first and apologised to her for her improper behaviour. It was also confirmed that the principal subsequently instructed some teachers to give Ogechi about 12 strokes of the cane on her backside. The principal and teachers have since been removed and will now report at the Education District 2, while the assault victim and the erring head girl were appropriately counselled by the School Social Services Directorate on the proper way to conduct themselves in school.” She added: “We have also instructed that the victim (Ogechi) should not be harassed or molested as she returns to the school to continue her studies and her parents were happy at the outcome of the intervention. “However, the ministry shall henceforth step up the school social services to educate both students and teachers on the best conduct in school environment across all public schools in Lagos State.” http://thenationonlineng.net/govt-removes-principal-deputy-four-teachers-assaulting-pupil/ 5 Likes 1 Share |

Clakyvip: Our government investigated thoroughly, the truth was revealed and appropriate actions were taken. Please note that Ogechi is presently a drummer for the school and was Social Prefect for the same school in her JSS3 days. She is a stellar student and recently represented the school in a literary and debating competition in the district. She won the competition for the school It's unfortunate that the school authorities presented her to be a bad girl from a bad home on social media in order to justify their wrongdoing. She is from a very good home where she was taught to be respectful to elders and authorities and also to stand up for her rights and resist any form of oppression. It was not difficult for government to find out the truth. Her school records were opened and it was glaring she was an A-Grade student with no prior disciplinary records. Pupils of the school were interviewed at random which uncovered the lies being bandied around by the principal and Brigadier7 69 Likes 6 Shares |

Isn't Eva Adelaja a private Institution? The best punishment would have been subjecting the school to a heavy fine and mandating new Statewide rules for places of learning, not removing privately employed people from their sources of livelihood. Because till I speak, there still isn't any law in place against the abuse of school aged children. On a secondary note, I wonder if such swift actions would have been taken if the affected was a 17 year old boy/male student 5 Likes 1 Share |

Brigadier7: I am very surprised at your judgement. In other places this principal of a woman would be facing very serious charges in a court of law! Aside from the cruel treatment meted out to the little child (imagine calling male teachers to slap and flog a little girl), which many people would not do to a goat or a dog, she went ahead to peddle her influence in order to pervert the course of justice and actively intimidated the police, and further misrepresented the facts to the public. Are these not very serious matters? Is such a person worthy of the charge to shape the moral character of the nation's future? In fact, i feel sorry for the woman herself, as it is clear her own education failed to instill in her the values she needs for life and i would like for her to become a better person so i would recommend that she be remanded in a correctional facility for a period of 6-24 months so that she might learn that violence does not solve all problems and being stronger does not make you right. 27 Likes |

Brigadier7: Removing the principal and teachers involved was not a rash move. In fact, they got off lightly. Do you know what would have happened to them in a civilized society? Also, respect is two-way, not one-way. It is give and take. No one has the right to put hands on another person. If you don't want someone to do it to you, then don't even think of doing it to someone else. Removing the principal and teachers ensured that toxic leadership was taken out of the equation. If anything, it is not that people don't respect teachers, It is that people don't respect or value life in Nigeria which is why it is so easy for Nigerians to do harm to one another. 4 Likes 1 Share |
