The major problem of Nigeria is the Nigerians living therein. The PTA should reach the Minister of Education fast.

The action of the Principal in denying access to records is suspicious, the school PTA need to take legal steps to avoid further health threatening issues arising.

The sickbay at the Queen’s College, Lagos, has been overcrowded with students following an outbreak of a yet to be known infection.

This is coming two years after TheCable did a series of reports on the contamination of the school’s water sources which led to the deaths of three students.

Ify Nwoye, public relations officer of the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA), told TheCable on Monday that they got a report about a week ago of how students were being rushed to the sickbay in their hundreds.

“We got there around 2pm yesterday. We alerted the principal and she went with us to the sickbay. When we got there, we saw some of the students being asked to go,” she said.

“One parent we met said this happened before, and when they called him, they said it was bacteria from water, from food. For months when the girl was brought back, she still had the same ailment. And we were asking the principal, ‘what is happening to the food, what is happening to the water?’

“At that point, we asked to see the record. To my utmost dismay, the principal said no, we won’t see the record. We wanted to know how many students have been sent home. The nurse at the sickbay was threatened not to release any record to the PTA. So, to avoid drama we had to leave.”

NO PRE-RESUMPTION PLAN

Nwoye also said things were not in place before the girls’ resumption. She added that it was the standard to ensure the school environment is clean and sewage treated before school opens but none of these was done.

“We all knew there was no pre-resumption plan. The sewage was not packed, the grasses were not cut. No fumigation. And the consequences are what we are seeing now,” she said.

She said students are now being asked not to report to the clinic, and those who do so are being threatened with dismissal.

The school management could not be reached immediately, but a source who works in the school and did not want to be named told TheCable that “the best thing is to close down the school. This is more than what we can control now.”

relinquishing parental responsibility to a school should never be taken lightly. Parents should carry out all the research they can before Letting their kids off to school

The govt should do better at provision of basic amenities for the student in their care. These kids sometimes eat and drink really terrible things sometimes.

I don't understand why the school is still opened after the death of two kids and why parents still allowed their kids back to the school.

The last time this happened, it's discovered that a dead cat was in their reservour of water. Who know what would be found in the water this time around. And the worst is that thousands of people living around the school (Iwaya, Onike, Sabo, Alara...) are drinking the pure water produced from the school. Those whose stories will never be told.

Most Nigerian elites are olodo. They do not strive to make public institutions work. Rather they create pseudo havens for themselves and their children. However what they do not realize is that they are only creating air-conditioned sanctuary in hell fire: sooner than later the heat will get there. Make Nigeria work or disband the the hell hole

This is sad. I wish all the students quick recovery.
Meanwhile, this is TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN!!

To farmers especially and to those who want to start any form of agribusiness.

Topic: Different types of pig breeds suitable for pig farming business.

You may be wondering how many different types of pig breeds are available for pig farming business.

Really, you are not alone in this research.

Out of curiosity, I launched out to get details of as many pig breeds as I can find.

This article is the outcome of the research.

Having knowledge of the different pig breeds available will position you to make a better decision on what pig breed to rear.

Some pig breeds are best for ham and bacon, while others are for medical experiments.

There are some breeds which are very rare and there are others which are very rampant.

This article will expose you to a whole lot of different types of domestic pig breeds with their pictures.

Would you like to know about the individual characteristics of each of the pigs?

Leave a Comment on the website, and in the coming days, I will publish detailed information about each of the pig breeds.

Na by force to go Queens college....Find another school na.


Is this the best you can put forward to the world? Being illiterate is one thing... can be excusable.... not having common sense is never excusable.
@ topic...... can somebody please explain what do they mean by the sewerage was not packed? I don't understand why the school is not shut down... the source of the disease identified and action taken against the administration. This can become an epidemic in the community.

Why don’t they get samples of the water and test? They also need to replace their water tanks. It’s quite lazy to just say you don’t know what is happening! Hopefully it's not cholera.

I am thinking that's what it is.... cholera... an epidemic taking root while they be explaining and hoping and praying but taking no action to arrest it.

Really, it is you that lack comprehension and common sense, it was stated that 2 years ago, cable tv has a report on state of the school facility, 3 students have died, several students are sick day in day out......so if you, being a dumbass that you are and you get child for that school....you will leave him/her to die before you can make decision....
