phineas: If the school had taken him to the hospital instead of handing him over to his parents perhaps it may have helped .but listen to yourself did you just see that a key factor in his demise was their poor care.
Now it's the schools fault? If the school had done that and he did not make it would we not have blamed the school for using him for rituals? The school did the right thing They identified he was sick enough to need further care and rightfully handed him to his guardians.How they choose to respond is completely on them and not the school You are still aggressively defending the school. Are you a member of the Dowen College Board? Now tell me what would Dowen College have done if the patents did not show up or send someone? Would they just watch a student die and then blame the parents for not coming? Look life is sacrosanct and the first impulse in all situations is to save life. They called the father, the father said he would send someone. Citing minor football injury. No one showed up for 2 days. They then called again, this time in panic, before his father sent his brother to pick him up. By the time the brother got to the school he was shocked at the state of Sylvester. He immediately called Sylvester's father back and said this looks more serious than mere football injury. This is the point that the father should have ordered that they take the boy to the nearest hospital. But no, he took him home. And this began the series of blunders that led to his eventual death. If Dowen College had taken the boy to the hospital (with the fathers consent of couse) and he died, how would the college be accused of using him for ritual? Even if it's without the fathers consent due to the emergency, and he died, would there not be doctors report snd coroner inquest. Religion and superstition is really destroying the fabric of African societies. |

Eketem: Most parents with kids with health issues sign consent forms for this so the child can be rushed to the hospital.
From the family witness and their family doctor testimony the Oromoni family didn't believe in hospital they preferred church and they didn't mention giving consent to the school and the school failed to use it As I have said many times, the Orominyi family has a huge part of the blame in sylvesters death and their handling of the issue would make it almost impossible for any court to find Dowen College or the accused boys guilt of murder or even manslaughter. Having said that, Dowen College has civil (not criminal) liabily for the death of Sylvester. They were negligent on many fronts and don't seen to have a good monitoring system for their boarding facilities. What I am after is for us all to learn a lesson from this and improve our schooling system. Many parents including myself are afraid to send our children to boarding school. I was making arrangements to send my 13 year old to a boarding school next session, my wife and I have reconsidered that idea, because of the horrible stories we have been hearing. |

Eketem: I have years of experience In child development; no school can take a child to hospital without parental consent, the cousin that picked him in Lagos said the family didn't want him taken to hospital in Lagos. Best the school can do is offer first aid which they did at the school clinic and call the parents I don't know about the school policy we operate, but I know that most elite schools are attached to hospitals for which the patents pay for, and they are taken to those hospitals in terms of emergency. Are you telling us that if a Sickle Cell patient have a crisis, they would have to wait for the patents to arrive before taking the child to a hospital? |

seborrhic: I am assuming he would be brought when the family lawyer opens its own case by calling its own witnesses or does a coroner inquest operate differently? A coroner inquest is to find out the cause of death and nothing more. It's a court that can find who is responsible or not for the death. |

You attack everyone that make any comment against Dowen or any of the accused. The teacher cannot go and testify as a witness for the family because the matter is not yet in court.

The supposed autopsy that would closed their case they didn't bring to court only shared online to cast doubt on the actual autopsy. Why did the family not bring their own autopsy to court. Where did you get the lie that the family conducted an autopsy? The autopsy was conducted by the Nigerian police and their lawyer had to write the Nigerian police to obtain a copy. The case has not gone to court as the Lagos State coroner is carrying out an inquest. The inquest is still on going.

Please read the quote you posted 2 or 3 times so you can comprehend. This is just external examination and reasons were given for the various marks on the body. Eketem: At least read Fullly
" A few others showed vertical marks on the chin (post mortem injury), “a recent external circular injury on the right ankle,” reddening on the lower part of the two legs (this shows that the embalming fluid did not get to that part of his body), the white brain shows that there is not enough blood in the body." Vertical marks on the chin - post mortem injury. Circular injury on the right ankle - a recent injury. Circular injury around the ankle means skin abrasion caused by hand. Reddening on the lower part of the two legs - embalming fluid did not get to that part of his body. The family was negligent and looking for a scape goat they consistently pushed false news including the fake autopsy report from Delta which they refused to tender and even objected to it being referenced I agree the family was negligent, but the school was also negligent. They should have taken Sylvester to a proper hospital when they saw his health deteriorating fast, instead of panicking and waiting for the parents to show up to pick the kid. If The parents were unavoidably unavailable, will they just watch the kid die. They were just too desperate to get rid of the kid, so he won't die in their custody. They were not the one that carried out the "False" autopsy report. The autopsy in Warri was carried out by the Nigerian police. They were only given a copy of the report, which the released publicly. |

Eketem: No Sir the only magic is the family who has been consistently shown to be pushing falsehood. The family has no reason to push falsehood. They are acting on what they actually believe based on what they saw and heard from Sylvester and based on previous experience. People cannot be held indefinitely when there is no charge against them. When they say you should read and learn you will not agree. Agreed. But this only applies to the powerful and mighty. Ordinary poor citizens are held in police custody indefinitely or until they pay "bail". The Government is in alignment with the investigation and autopsy findings so they are in trial by the family who brought the Inquest Which government. The government looks compromised. They exonerated all accused and reopened the school even before the coroner inquest had been concluded. What led to the wound has been stated, ankle injury from falling while playing ball. Non of the autopsy report showed any ankle injury or bone injury. |

From just reading the report of the Lagos State Pathologist, I can conclude that Sylvester Oromoniyi died from biological intoxication and not chemical intoxication. Here are the proof from the report; The cross-examination also dwelled on the cause of death with the pathologist insisting that the late Sylvester, died of Septicaemia.
Septicaemia is when bacteria enters the bloodstream, and causes blood poisoning which triggers sepsis
While being led in evidence by the Director of Public Prosecution, DPP Lagos, Dr. Jide Martins, the pathologist testified on his findings during the autopsy. He said the findings indicated a generalised infection of the body.
“It was an infection of the lungs, the deceased also had an infection of the liver, the kidneys, infection of the right arm, the soft tissue of the muscles covering the bone below the ankle. The summary of these is that he had generalised infection.” The Septicaemia must have entered the bloodstream through the oesophagus and stomach. This must have been from the liquid he was alleged to have been forced to drink. This was probably why the infection affected all the vital organs so fast. Dr. Soyemi said, “This could have been treated. What could have been used in treating was massive dose of antibiotics, intravenous fluid and blood transfusion.”
He added that based on his finding, the illness could have been properly managed if the boy was taken for proper treatment. It was not a terminal case at all, the doctor stated.
The doctor however noted that the medical condition could lead to death if not properly treated, adding that the “mortality rate is high.” Evidence the school and parents were treating the wrong diagnosis. If they had started treating the boy for acute and aggressive bacterial infection (Septicaemia), Sylvester would certainly have survived. Mr Falana asked, “can massaging of the body and an injury lead to infection?”
The doctor replied no.
The senior lawyer again asked, “If there’s an injury and it has been massaged repeatedly, can it lead to the removal of the skin or part of the skin?”
The doctor replied in the affirmative.
The senior advocate asked, “Are you aware that the ankle injury of the deceased was subjected to massaging in the sickbay of Dowen College on the 21st, 22nd & 23rd?
Dr. Soyemi said, “Not aware.” Instead the school and parents were treating for orthopedic injuries. They were massaging the body of Sylvester and giving pain relievers. A few others showed vertical marks on the chin (post mortem injury), “a recent external circular injury on the right ankle,” reddening on the lower part of the two legs (this shows that the embalming fluid did not get to that part of his body), the white brain shows that there is not enough blood in the body.
“Prior to the conduct of autopsy, I did a total body radiograph to rule out any skeletal injury, that is, fracture, none was found. And the radiologist confirmed there was no fracture Further evidence there was no evidence of bone injury. All the ankle abrasions were as a result of aggressive massaging. My conclusion Sylvester was beaten and bullied, but the physical beatings did not kill him. It was the liquid he was forced to drink. Now since our we don't have labs in Nigeria that can carry out a complete toxicology examination and the body and all organs had been tampered with coupled with cover ups from all those involved, it will be impossible to prove Sylvester Oromoniyi was murdered. Biological intoxication is much more difficult to prove that chemical intoxication. You have to determine exactly how the biological agents were introduced into the bloodstream. |

Foreigners in the name of Fulani herdsmen, Boko Haram, ISWAP, etc are in here. Why must there be a new law for this? How does this resolve burning issues in this country? These rogues are at it again. The bill should be shot down immediately. So in effect you are saying that a British, German or US man married to a Nigerian lady and wants his family to settle in Nigeria does not deserve Nigerian citizenship? Meanwhile you are alright with the reverse case whereby a woman married to a Nigerian man is allowed citizenship? Is that not discriminatory against women? It seems some tribes in Nigeria are against granting women any sort of right. |

NimrodEndOfDays: I tend to cringe when educated or people who claim to be exposed make comments like these. in the statement above which is bold. first of all, the Igbos are predominantly traders so therefore, the tendency to move away from their region to other places where opportunities exist is supposed to be high. The way you wrote it like as if the SE is empty and all the people have left there and moved to other areas. if you must know, Nnewi is known for something which is automobiles parts and mechanical parts. its a thriving area and there are thousands of people there who do business and don't even know that Lagos exist if not for the sea port for them to import their containers. Aba is known for making shoes, and other house hold materials. its a thriving area and there are many of them who have never been to Lagos unless it has o do with the sea port in apapa. there are just two that i know you probably would have heard of. The nature of their business means that they cannot be in one place. Africa has more that 50 countries so if eventually there is a split and our neighbors are hostile, if there are Igbos who want to move out of the region, there are many west African countries that can accommodate them. for you to say that people moving out of their area to another because they cannot stay alone or cannot survive without Nigeria is laughable and comes from a place filled with ignorance. The Jews before the creation of the state of Israel in 1948 were found in Poland, Austria, Germany, France, UK ,USA, south Africa etc. Albert Einstein was a German Jew. they were thriving in these countries because they had something to offer in terms of skills and business. people like you would have said the same thing and discouraged them not to create their own nation because majority of Jew WERE outside their land but they still had a large number their people in Israel. today, Israel is better than Nigeria is all human indices. The Chinese do not stay in their country, they have factories in Lagos and even have a large community. does that mean they cannot survive without Nigeria? china is like a god country to Nigeria. the Lebanese are in different countries of the world, so are the Indians who reside in areas like illupeju Lagos but have countries better than Nigeria in terms of what they have to offer. its so sad that you had give the Fulani's an exception. i am not surprised. that's the bigotry we experience everyday so its not new. the fulanis are predominantly cow herders so there fore they have to go to were their market is. doesn't mean that they cannot survive without Nigeria. They have brothers in Mali chad, and they are doing just fine. Anyone who stays in his state and decides not to move out does not mean their states are like states in America its just that they may not have what to offer the others. The ijaws are fishermen that is why they could be found in areas that are close to the sea. they are not Yoruba's but they are found in ondo state. Why and when did igbos become traders - pre colonialization, pre - independence or after the biafra war? Igbos have been migrating, particularly up north before independence and even before amalgamation. What were igbos trading in the early 1900 that made many of them migrate up north? Igbos region is not conducive for trading. Yes a region is conducive for trading if you are a link or thouroughfare between manufacturers and the market. For example Middle East was/is a link between China (producer) and Europe (market). Same with ancient Venice. Igboland has no advantage whatsoever in trading within west Africa. Even during the slave trade, Calabar, Badagry, Cape coast were the slave trading ports. I hate it when you guys compare yourselves to the Jews or other people. The histories are very different. The Jews were driven from their land twice. First under Babylon and second under Romans in AD70. They came back after Hitler killed over 6 million of then with the sympathy of the winners of the war. Do you think there would have been an Israel or even jew if Hitler had won the war? The Jews had been under every major super power the world has ever had - Babylon, Egypt, Persia, Rome, British. The Lebanese were involved in a bitter civil war that saw mass migration to other parts of the world. How many Chinese are in Nigeria compared to the general population? How many Chinese want to migrate to Nigeria. I am sure there are more igbos in China than chinese in the whole of Nigeria. Yes Africa has more than 50 countries, but how many are ready to accommodate igbos - Ghana, Cameroon, South Africa, Morocco. Igbos generally don't get along with their host communities for one reason or the other. I doubt many countries would be ready to take in mass migration of igbos, particularly if all they intend doing is trade. I am not excusing Fulanis. I am only pointing out that Fulanis are nomads and they follow water and grazing routes of their cows and the markets. While getting the inland port at Onitsha operational is a very good economic plan, making it happen is very complicated and costly. Firstly, It was not built to accommodate container ships, it was built by the British to move primary produce to the sea, by steam boats. Those boats were nowhere big as container ships of today. To make the river accommodate container ship would require extensive dredging to expand the depth and width of the river. To do that you guys have to negotiate with your brother - the Ijaws. Abacha attempted to dredge the river to Onitsha but was stopped by the Ijaws. |

NimrodEndOfDays: The major reason why there ports were left redundant was because of the war with Biafra. The FG ceded Bakassi and stopped the ports because they didn't want the Biafrans to have the ability to wage a war by importing arms through these water ways. so for your ports to work it would take the power of god. go and listen to Obong attahs interview on arise TV and listened to why most of the developments in his state were frustrated. False narrative. The ports were not functional before the biafran war. My village is 20 minutes away by boat to koko and Sapele port is not far away. The ports were not built by the British by economic considerations. They were built to export Timber from the area. Since the fall of the timber trade, the Sapele port has not been operational. The governor's are always looking for excuses for their failures. No doubt the FG makes things difficult, but an innovative and selfless governor would achieve some degree of success. |

Simran94: Even at that… Have you ever asked yourself why this same Indians and other Asian citizens come into Nigeria to invest? Obviously because Nigeria has natural resources that the FG keep misusing, they come to make use of it while employing Nigerians and still maltreating them in their own land, they know that foreigners are being treated way better than the citizens itself and that would be of great gain for them in so many ways, one of it being keep employing Nigerian workers, push them to work and maltreat them because their Government doesn’t care. I went to immigration at Ikoyi to do my passport, we were so many on the queue at around 8am, when it was around 8:30am, some Chinese guys came to join the crowd and that was how one of the immigration men went to them and asked them what they wanted to do, then he took them inside. People just started shouting. So them coming isn’t even beneficial to citizens of this country. This is why CCECC and other companies they have in Nigeria treat their Nigerian workers as slaves, pay little salary to their workers, maltreat them right here in this same Nigeria because FG doesn’t care as long as they pay their taxes. So why won’t they come? Were you not on twitter the other day when one Chinese restaurant was called out for maltreating their Nigerian workers? It was after that call out they did an investigation and found out it was true, the restaurant was closed for good. They obviously cannot close CCECC because that is actually the leading construction company in Nigeria, so the mistreatment continues.
Can this happen in any other sane country and the company won’t be sued? Can’t you see what Chad and Niger people that are already citizens in Nigeria are doing? These are the same people that have turned into Boko Haram and bandits inflicting the owners of the land and yet you want more of them to keep coming.
If you think foreigners coming to Nigeria to invest are doing it for your sake, then sorry for you because they would walk all over you to get what they want and nothing would be done about it. In one line you say "them coming isn’t even beneficial to citizens of this country" and the very next line you say they pay little salary to their workers. Are you saying the little salary they pay (and taxes) is not beneficial to the country? The problem is both your government and fellow Nigerians. When Nigerians in these Chinese companies decides to fight for higher salaries, it's their Nigerians senior management staff and the government that always sabotage their efforts. I have seen it here in Ikorodu where it's fellow Nigerian senior management staff that advice Chinese company owners not to increase salary of junior workers. |

Anyway i lived in Britain for more than twenty years and on getting back to Nigeria,I found Nigerians extremely dishonest, perfidious, selfish, superstitious, lacking self control,arrogant empty and scurrilous,in fact they lack nation building qualities. As far as I'm concerned a Nigerian graduate is equivalent to a Briton with a G.C.S.E certificate. That has been my experience Abeg helep me ask them, before the British amalgamated the igbo clans, were they a nation or a region? Why not ask to bulkanize to pre colonial times. The same people forcing Ikwerre and Anioma to join them are advocating for everyone to go their own way. Is that not a paradox? Dismemberment in these times would be a tragedy. It would make the smaller and weaker states easy pickings for the major powers (including Iran and Saudi Arabia) as is happening in Ukraine right now. It would set us back 200 years.

NimrodEndOfDays: And later boast about how glorious Lagos is. If not for the loop sided nature of Nigeria why would one state be the only one with a sea port when states in the Niger Delta are close to the sea? The reason why the North especially was amalgamated with the south was just to slow the progress of the south. Simple. Because I don't understand why a region would have held on to power the most but are the most useless. Lagos was created before the creation of Nigeria. Lagos was given special status by the colonialists and was even removed and governed separately from western Nigeria. Lagos ports was and still is, the easiest port to access directly from the sea. You don't need to navigate any inland river to access Lagos ports. You need to dredge and constantly maintain the dredging to make the inland ports navigatable. Yes I believe the government should develop the other ports of the Niger Delta and indeed our Olu made that demand when he visited Buhari last week, but the problem with our governments is that they are all lazy. They are not ready to spend the effort and money to make the other ports navigatable. |

So who do you think would lose should the country break up and everyone is asked to return to his village? Just because you guys are terrible political strategists and lost politically, you want to cut the baby in half, not minding that the baby and even you might not survive the dismemberment. Take a cue from what is happening in Ukraine right now and what happened to all former Soviet Republic countries that split from Russia. The problem with Nigeria is the same problem in each of our individual families - Greed, selfishness and inability to compromise. Until we learn to be selfless and patriotic, we can never have peace and development even if we divide the country into our individual clans. |

kollinzgee: Roughly 90% of Japan's land is unhabitable occupied by rugged volcanic mountains,the largest habitable stretch of land in Japan is the Kanto plains which is about 16000sqkm in landmass about 60 percent of Japan's population lives here , infact the entire Japanese industrustry is establish in the plain.
The southeast alone is about 30,000 square kilometers with lesser population and almost all of it are habitable,with little mountains and no natural disasters we must take igbo Nation to the next level for the next generation.

zendi: And which Jankara Market Law tells you that legal adults can successfully claim to have been inspired by somebody to commit crime? If you're running for office then you become liable for any law breaking by some of your supporters any day you hold a campaign rally, when you were not part of the planning or actioning of such act? If you're caught robbing a bank you tell the judge that it was your wife's taunting for cash that made you do it? Or that Chief Okoye said in a speech that the money in the bank was national cake, so you were there to take your slice?
Law breakers are responsible for their law breaking and nobody was "inspired" by anybody to disrupt anything. Imagine. And US went after Osama Bin Laden and subsequently the Taliban, even though Osama bin Laden was no where near the US on September 11 2001 |

mike404: EVEN THE TRADITIONAL WORSHIPPERS ARE AGAINST SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE, SO WOULD YOU LIKE TO TELL ME WHY A SINGLE FEMALE STUDENT SHOULD BE SEXUALLY ACTIVE WHEN WE ARE NOT IN THE WESTERN WORLD
BIBLE, QURAN AND AFRICAN TRADITIONAL RELIGION (ATR) FORBIDS SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE What of people like me that forbids marrying non tested. My philosophy (belief) is sex before marriage? Is Nigeria not a free country again? Are we in a sharia/canon Republic where individual rights are not recognized? |

zendi: Woketopia is the only dystopia in which a harmless sitting president, with neither military backing nor even a feather as weapon, is accused of making coup against an electoral candidate.
Election contesting/disputing is not insurrection or coupmaking. Inspiring your supporters to disrupt a constitutional election process of ratifying elections already ratified at district level, state level (both by executive and legislative) and national level is not contesting/disputing an election, it's an insurrection/coup. Contesting/disputing is done at the courts and not with jungle justice. Else we all close the courts and resort to jungle justice. |
