A reliable source in the school told the News Agency of Nigeria in Awka on Tuesday that the girl died on Thursday last week after she was flogged. The source explained that the girl
fainted after being flogged severally by a female teacher and was
subsequently rushed to an undisclosed hospital, where she died.
Haven't they banned corporal punishment in Nigerian schools? Why are some teachers still flogging? WTH? Please continue...
The source also told NAN that the
Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Uju Okeke, then ordered the closure of
the school as a result of the incident.
A NAN correspondent, who visited the
girl’s family home, soon after she was buried on Tuesday in Awka,
reports that the family was in grief.
The girl’s father, Mr. Simeon Ukachukwu,
confirmed the incident, saying it was a sad development. He added that
it was an act of God.
But when Okeke was contacted, she denied ordering the closure of the school and said that the school was on midterm break.
NAN investigation, however, revealed that schools in the state were not on midterm break.
This fact was corroborated by an official of the Nigerian Union of Teachers in Akwa South Local Government Area.
The Chairperson of the union in the
local government, Miss Buife Ndigwe, told NAN that primary and secondary
schools in the state would go on midterm break next week.
When contacted, the Public Relations
Officer of the state police command, Mr. Ralph Uzoigwe, said that the
matter had not been reported to the police, but promised that it would
be investigated.

ReplyDeleteal dis wicked teachers,dey hve lot of bitterness welled up in dem,RIP gurl
ReplyDeleteWhat a sad development, dat teacher should be jail for life.
ReplyDeleteWhat sort of name do you bear?
DeletePls elaborate on this your name.
DeleteWat a name!!!Hian!
DeleteYou are an idiot! To think Linda published your comment with such a useless name. It's people like you that stigmatise even pregnant women! Abirun oshi!
DeleteSatan! so what if she has hiv! she's nt d 1st neither would she b d last!
Deletewhat is it with female teachers and female students??..when i was in secondary school, i had this female teacher who made sure she made my life miserable and i still dont know what i did to make her hate me so much. This is really unfair, dat teacher should be arrested immediately!
ReplyDeleteTreat others how you would love to be treated. Its really sad
ReplyDeletefor real so d principal alowed sum teacher to flog a student till she had 2 faint..dnt teachers knw wen to stop floggin again?? WTF is goin on in dis country
ReplyDeleteThe teacher should have given her a warning instead,the teacher took it too far. May the young girl's soul rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very wrong. Truly, the teacher must be from Aluu community..if not, why else would she beat a 12 year-old to death just because of some flimsy failure on the part of the deceased to do her homework? The teacher should be executed!
ReplyDeleteMay her soul rest in peace. I guess this was just a coincedence,coz no sane teacher will setout to kill a student for failing to do his/her homework. During my time we were punished for not doing our homework. I pray d polity doesn't get heatedup.
ReplyDelete~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA3310
I agree with you. Maybe the student was ill and the strokes of cane aggravated the whole situation.
DeleteHow do you flog a child to death? How? This is not an act of God not at all, the man shouldn't say that! Its obviously an act of the Devil, dnt even put it on God!
ReplyDeleteIn the Year 2012... Nigerians need to stop tolerating these barbaric acts. Thank you for exposing this.
ReplyDeleteGood for d teacher. maybe d girl bin dey sick before d teacher kon flog her. i sure d teacher dey regret flogging her. she no go flog person pikin again for d rest of her life
ReplyDeletei was speechless wen i heard it on d radio dis morning. may he soul rest in peace and i feel for the teacher cox she flogged the wrong person. who know if the girl had healthy issues?
ReplyDeleteThat teacher should be arrested. I so hate the fact they flog in schools. I never liked it as a child, I won't like it for my child.
ReplyDeleteFunny, I always tot u wer a child
DeleteHahahahahha, what gave you tha impression, am still lol
DeleteCome 2 think of it,ow many lashes wud ve warranted ha death?
ReplyDeleteJust saying,
Some pple r already dead,na bad head go come kill dem physically.we just pray not 2 b in d wrong place
My dear, ure right. I believe d girl had health issues. D parents shld jst come out n tell d truth rather dan blame it all on d teacher.
DeleteIts barbaric, flogging a child for a homework not done isn't the solution.
ReplyDeleteAll this akara schools for villa.... May she rip sha
ReplyDeleteIt won't be the first or last...
ReplyDeleteBut one of the publicize case of corporal punishment....
Wish I can sue all them teachers that beat me silly then..
This is sooooo wrong...i really dont know wot else to say.
ReplyDelete*weak*
The teacher shud be arrested instarta.wat a rubbish..
ReplyDeletei don't understand why teachers beat their students.. it's just wrong. there are several ways u can punish a kid without any body harm.. I've always hated caning

ReplyDeleteTat teacher must b frustrated!!! Flog a. Student 2 death wat is happening 4 God sack! Pple ar jut being soo wicked dis days haba! Where is human feelings n sympathy hummmmmm it is well ohh! RIP dr
ReplyDeleteTeachers in the East still flog people till they faint? And in this case, die? I thought civilisation would have erased that by now. I finished secondary skool there, over ten years ago, and it was a common occurrence to flog a student till their hands bleed or they faint. May the soul of that poor kid RIP. Amen.
ReplyDeleteSo they still beat in skls... The techer shld be arressted.And for the girls father, that is not an act of God but human carelessness.
ReplyDeleteThe woman should be jailed at least for 10years most teachers are generally wickend
ReplyDeleteIts sad thoo. Mrs do gooder teacher, now u see were this has left u! Badly shortchanged and probably heading to d courts too 4 manslaughter!!
ReplyDeleteThis is why I do not get into a physical altercation anymore cos in my university days,I punched a white boy who called me a nigger and he passed out! I had to use my CPR skiLls to revive the white trash. Luckily for me he didn't press charges!
Poor girl. May her soul Rest In Peace.

DeleteI think you should go get a test done before you blame it on the advise cos long before linda posted it my Sis has always told me not to do same tho I do cos if I don't wash with little soap, I don't feel fresh plus you myt hv eating something like abacha or bitter leaf soup cos most times, our vjay juices smell of what we ate. Try Fruits like pineapple before any straph session so ur vjay can hv a fruity smell to it.

ReplyDeleteThe person is from anambra. Wetin concern aluu wiv this one. Can u see wickedness is everywhere..... I am sure I have been flogged worse than that when I was in sch years back. Its either the teacher is wicked or she was having a bad day or the child herself is sick. its really God that is saving many of us from this people in authority. A lot of people infact everybody whether u are doing a proffesional job or not need psychological Evaluation especially in Nigeria. Teachers, doctors, lawyers, nurses etc....... If u are not settled and u carry ur frustration into ur daily activity, this is the end result!
ReplyDeleteSeconded.
Deletesome people in this life are already "walking corpse" don't be an instrument used to send them to their grave....... Mystery
ReplyDeleteHow sad. I'm not a med expert, but I kinda doubt that 'ordinary flogging' woulda killed her. I mean, there's no report that she was excessively brutalised or anything. An autopsy shoulda been done. Chances are she had a medical condition that was triggered by the stress. We all should have regular med checks done on us and our kids/ wards. May she RIP. I kinda pity the teacher too. See bad market.
ReplyDeleteprobably d girl was ill, I dnt think any teacher in his/her right senses would flog a student to death. That being said, TEACHERS need to be careful.stop venting your personal anger on students!!
ReplyDeleteSome ppl can't stand pain and the thot of it alone enuf to giver them heart attack.
DeleteALUU TINZ! Barbarian witch teacher, God purnish u o! May God console d girl's family biko.
ReplyDeleteYou use your tongue to bless and curse. Nawa o
Deleteare u ppl trying to tell me that u were not flog wen u are in the school, is just an accident did the teacher ask the girl not to do her home work. u ppl should always think before condemning somebody
ReplyDeleteThat we were flogged as kids doesn't make it right. If she is in the habit of not doing her homework, please notify her parents or better still minus the mark for her when computing her result. I don't have any children yet but when I do, I will not spear any teacher that flogs my child for something as trivial as homework. If it were to be something grave like fighting or looking up a girl's skirt or playing with a boy in the bathroom I will understand but pleas even if you must flog my child 5 strokes is enuf or just hand him or her over to me I will kill the child myself.
Delete†Ñ’ξ teacher shld be dealt wit.RIP chi
ReplyDeleteHow could that teacher be so cruel... the teacher should be flogged to death or rather Aluued.
ReplyDeleteHeard the news this morning and I was shocked. from the story you posted( Linda) the story is contracting. Even the police said they have no knowledge of the incident and the commissioner denies her shutting down the school. So what the real story? Because when such thing happens, the first thing is to report to the police and gets the teacher arrested? This was never done from the story. I don’t think the girl died as a result of the flogging. All the same Teachers should stop flogging their student’s including parents as well. There are other ways to punish a child.
ReplyDeleteNa wa ooo 4 jet age shebi na wetin dem dey call am,I was flogged ooo by my teachers and parents tooo.nothing barbaric abt dat.An autopsy shld v been done to find out d exact cause of death.
ReplyDeleteIt's so unfortunate something like this can happen to either the teacher nor the deceased but cos it has happened I can only pray for the soul of the poor girl to find peace in God's kingdom and for the family, the fortitude to bear this huge loss. As we can't ascertain, it could be that the deceased wasn't feeling fine and this teacher became an avenue for the devil to complete his work. She(the teacher) is just unfortunate as far as I am concerned. What kind of flogging kill like that? Did she use hammer to flog her? My advise to teachers, do not flog at all no matter what?
ReplyDeleteTerrible scenario.I've said dis time witout no. To learn is not by force.dnt go arnd killin students in d name of discipline
ReplyDeleteso guess who's gonna be doing her assignment in prison?
ReplyDeleteIt is outrageous that in 2012, a teacher can flog a student. If the story is true, I hope the teacher is prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
ReplyDeleteMy parents were strict disciplinarians who didn't put up with any nonsense from us but if anyone touched us, na im be say the person wan die be that!
ahhhh!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteno wonder my parenst neva allowed any soul to slap me talkless of flogging........hmmmmm,i will definitely do d same 4 my pikin.......no be afta i don push finish person go come kill am 4 me.....nonsense, all in d name of assignment
ReplyDeleteSOOOOO SAD
ReplyDeleteinvestigation kwa? This is the height of it.. demonized saddist who call themselves teachers... the wicked teacher should be given the poor student's corpse to eat... i wouldn't be surprised if that teacher doesnt have a child... and nothing was said of the said teacher if she has been arrested or not... o di egwu
ReplyDeletemay the poor girl's soul rest peacefully where she wont face demonized teachers again...
NULI DE NONYES
It's hard to jus place law against flogging cos some children are too unruly, however, der should be a limit like maximum of 6strokes depending on the offence. I'm pretty sure the girl was beaten continuously.
ReplyDeleteThere are other ways of punishing stead of caning d living daylight outta children.Funny but I was only discussin d issue of discipline approach in schools abroad & here dis mornin. Frustrated teacher taking it out on poor girl!
ReplyDeleteI am of the opinion that corporal punishment in schools does more harm than good but please b4 u start condemning the teacher try to understand that almost all Nigerian schools are still into corporal punishment and that her flogging the child is very unlikely to have been the only cause of the child's death. Sure, it must have triggered it but maybe there was something wrong with the child medically that wasn't known. A lot of kids are beaten mercilessly in Nigerian schools daily, how many have dropped dead?
ReplyDeleteAnd wat is it with Nigerians and ALUU community? Doz racist shouting dat the teacher must be from ALUU are no better that the people that carried out that disturbing act.
U sef madam Linda, try using less provoking choice of words on your blog. The title of this blog would have been better as "12-year-old dies while being flogged by teacher"
Teacher teacher, no teashi me nansense! "While being flogged" is wrong. Cos if u read properly, she died later. She only fainted "while being flogged"...... So u and Linda, no difference.
Deletethis is sad and very babaric. the teacher should be in jail
ReplyDeleteA female teacher? Im shocked women normally have compassion. So sad!
ReplyDeletesome children deserve to be beaten but nobody asked you to kill somebody's child now and for something little as homework, that's just too much
ReplyDeleteWHY do people say every unfortunate act is an act of God when Gods is known to be benevolent-all good?
ReplyDeleteAT the same time they blame the devil?
Which one is it? Abi the they are the same people with split personality disorder?
Wtf.... De teacher dey mad ni? Wats she thinkin floggin anoda woman's child like dat? Wetin conecrn her wada she do home work sabi book or not? Going to jail won't serve as justice for de dead gal if she is to be my daughter. Wicked creatures everywhere in dis 9ja, smhhhhhhh
ReplyDeletemy opinion.....there's also a possibility that the girl had some underlying health challenges. am so sure she wasn't the only one flogged and the story didnt state how many strokes she was given before the unfortunate incident , i guess it really doesn't matter anymore its just unfortunate that it resulted in death. the fathers comment seems so accepting of the incident, i know raising any fuss wouldnt bring her back but.......
ReplyDeletePlease TEACHERS be warned that children these days are not made with hard bricks as when you (The Teacher) were growing. You ate good nourishing food that gave you enough strength, but the children these days eat processed food that live them so fragile. PLEASE STOP Flogging our children so hard ooooooooo! A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE
ReplyDeleteI personally believe that children shouldn't be beaten in Schools! Look at the result of it! The girl could have been cautioned or given detention! This is just cruel, even if you beat a child, there is a limit!
ReplyDeleteMay her gentle soul rest in perfect peace and may the Lord comfort her parents!
Did you just say the father said it was an act of GOD???????
ReplyDeleteAnd we ask what is wrong with Nigeria!
Make una quiet dia! Who has not been flogged for not doing his/her homework if uve actually passed through the nigerian school system! It was an unfortunate incident! Spare d rod and spoil the child!
ReplyDeleteTerribly sad.
ReplyDeleteOMG Anon October 24, 2012 10:59 AM re the Ngozi Nwosu news. Just read it. Mmmm.
Linda, pls screen out people who lend unintelligent comments to your Blog. Numbers do not always guarantee Quality. Trying to make a silly joke of every bad situation is offensive. The reference to Aluu is stupid and ignorant. So many young Nigerians are so shallow and ill-spoken these days, it is horribly sad! The grammar & spellings too...!!!
ReplyDeleteJust think about what I said dear Linda, let your Comment sections be capable of generating an interesting and informed thread. Trust me, it'll be a huge impact boost to your site. Regards
R Ʊ kidding? Believe mi wen I say that the teacher dosnt have a certificate
ReplyDeleteWow this is sad, this sort of punishment I went through during my primary and secondary school days in Nigeria looking back I'm married now with 2kids In england and still live with the trauma .
ReplyDeleteWHAT!!! That teacher cannot rest until she's punished! And a woman for that matter! All bcos of homework!
ReplyDeleteIs dat ow dey floged d teacher wen she was a studend....pple dis is wickedness D teacher ned 2 b punished 4 it...
ReplyDeleteAluu people don enter Awka
ReplyDeleteFirstly I think the matter should be investugated, yes 12 strokes of the cain is much, but I wanna believe the girl was probably sick or something cos people don't just die like that....n abt coparal puynishments being banned, I don't think that is possible, I'm a corper n presently a teacher in a schl in a public schl, when I started teaching, I had inteentions not to beat the student, but mehn, I had to cos that's the only way to get them serious.... N truely av seen an inprovement in there performance...I don't beat them cos I hate, I beat them ccos I wanna helped down, someone did the same to me too when I was young n today I apprieciate it...for the young lady may her soul rest in peace
ReplyDeleteThere are still some teachers like that,its worst in a private secondary school where I graduated.This is so sad,may her soul RIP
ReplyDeleteand the parents said it's an act of God? how can God cause you grief?He allowed it happen doesnt mean HE caused it!!SATAN DID!!
ReplyDeleteThe 17th commandment. "Thou shalt do your homework, else you perish" This is just pathetic. SMH!!!
ReplyDeleteWe are so quick to judge and condemn in this country why don't we let the police or an autopsy be carried out to determine the cause of death, I don't want to believe the girl was flogged with 'kumo'. Many students are being flogged daily and they don't die. The teacher should be arrested and investigated and if she is guilty she should be jailed but if the girl died as a result of something else and its confirmed that the flogging is just a coincidence the teacher should be freed. Let's be objective and not emotional in passing comments.
ReplyDeleteSome Teachers just enjoy flogging and some of them see it as the best corrective measure....HOUSE OF ZINNO

ReplyDeleteTeachers should have known better. This kind of punishment was banned by some governments around Africa, in East Africa, that kind of punishment is no longer! sometimes you flog a kid who has got some problems health wise, it is very possible the flogging can stir whatever the problem there in and cause death, so this irresponsible teacher will be a good example to other teachers who enjoy whipping school kids as if there no other punishment. RIP dear young lady, too young to die and unfairly. as for the teacher, I don't know what to say.
ReplyDeleteNot fair at all. Sm pips re just wicked.
ReplyDeletethat she was flogged is not the reason why she died,was she flogged with a machete?its only unfortunate that the teacher would now be blamed for what she doesnt know about.But then teachers have to be cautious if u must flog a child be cautious a few strokes on the palms or buttocks is fine.children are very stubborn this days and a cane is sometimes necessary o.
ReplyDeleteAnon 3:14pm may God help u!!!I'm very sure u're 4rm Aluu n u beat up kids.u beta be careful n dnt allow d devil use u one day...
DeleteGood Morning, I am getting so tired of hearing about the wickedness of people in Nigeria...I am wondering which God we are praying to when we commit these type of atrocities or we give excuses for savagery. Please continue to report on these issues so we can change our country because frankly I don't care two cents about the stupid song tonto dikeh pretended to sing or what weave-on or outfit some celebrity is wearing those things are irrelevant and buffoonery for our people.
ReplyDeleteThis is a damn child no amount excuses can give someone the right to flog someone else's child. Stop thinking that that will train that child. A word is enough for the wise. Children make mistakes. How many of you were flogged at school...now look at how you turned out reckless and immoral thieves!
ReplyDeleteU no dey post my comment ne!ah!ah!

ReplyDeleteNa wah o linda u no post my comment???? And it was very important..... Na wah for u o,

May her gentle soul rest in peace, Amen. @mz_nerd, I swear I just found out this morning my pussy smells. I haven't had sex for 3months cos my Bf doesn't live in Nigeria,he visits every 4months. So when I saw Linda's post tellin us not to use soap down there I thought I should give it a try.takin my bathe this morning one mind said "deep ur hands and knw if it smells good still?" hmm oh boy! It was bad! Me myself was like "what is this?? No bi person tell me o, am back to using soap joor.
ReplyDeleteI really do feel sorry for this little girl, for not doing her homework she was sentenced to death. Unfortunately it's only in our country Nigeria this can happen, and as usual the authority that be are trying to cover it up rather than justice for the poor little girl. Really sad, wonder where our country is heading to......
ReplyDelete@ 1:1pm. Concur wit u. Linda should be careful wit headlines. There's no way d child died from flogging. There was a preexisting medical condition, may be asthma so u ppl shouldn't be in a haste to condemn. No teacher ever wants dat kind blame on them. Besides teachers r one of d important factors in our growth in character n under appreciated. Also bible says spare d rod n spoil d child, I believe there should be a balance in everything. The punishment dis time was excessive. Pls post dis comment o!
ReplyDeleteALUU 4 and now this? ... these ridiculous stories of corporal punishment and jungle justice will continue until an act or law is passed in Nigeria to stop any person(s) in any supposed authority from taking the law into their hands or punishing others to the point of death, so before people start mob beating or punishing students; they will think twice. For crying out loud; we are in the 21st century; Where are the Human Rights Organisations in Nigeria; where is your voice to shout and educate the public "STOP ANY FORM OF VIOLENCE OR BRUTALITY TO YOUR NEIGHBOR": this is no longer an acceptable way of life. Tomorrow or next week again; it will be a similar same story. Nonsense... That teacher must face the repercussions; to act as a deterrent to others. I was flogged when I was in Secondary school years back; however that era is well behind us; I will not have anyone flog my child today.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I concur wit 1:09 pm not1:13pm.pls post dis Linda.
ReplyDeleteThat was how one teacher flogged us back then when I was in secondary sch in Anambra state. Flogged us silly cos she said we were making noise, some of us started bleeding. My dad then was a Major in the army, the next day he followed me to my sch, when the teacher saw us coming she ran and locked herself inside the toilet& refused coming out. The principal started begging hmm see the sch that day eeh, everywhere scatter. I felt like a princess lol. Cut long story I was in JS2 at the time, no teacher ever touched me till I graduated. May her soul rest in peace jare.wicked teachers, I wait for the day any of them will touch my kids, may God help them.
ReplyDeleteNigerians should please learn to identify what is indeed an act of God. The poor girl's father said his daughter's death is an act of God. How is that?
ReplyDeleteSo sad!!
I hope this will be properly investigated.
No child should ever die at the hand of their teacher. This teacher needs to have her license revoked, and never be able to teach again. There is other punishment sufficient enough to motivate a child to complete homework without having to lay a finger on them.
ReplyDeleteI tire
ReplyDeletenothing wrong with flogging , too much of it is the problem.. too much of everything isnt good. we should learn to take caution and do things moderately and not extreme in the heat of anger. ama flog ma children wella. i was flogged wellaaaaa!!! i no die.. not every1 moving around is human and well in the 1st place. she prolly don die since and her body was possessed looking for who go je gbese and the teacher provoked terribly we never can tell . thats if the teacher wasnt extreme in the flogging.. don diddy
ReplyDeletehey c'mon u guys! its sad yea! but i don't think the intention of the teacher was to kill the student. let's be reasonable.
ReplyDeleteits just an unfortunate incident.
we had a similar case sometime ago.
a relation came to while away time in my aunt's house as she had a job interview a couple of hours later. when she left and got to 2+he company, she slumped and died. fingers were pointed at my aunt accusing her of poisoning, this and that but thankfully the late girl's mum came out to say the girl had some terminal disease that had been a threat to her life before now...
Its just an unfortunate incident
May her soul RIP.....It's not impossible for the girl to be an Ogbanje (very sorry to say this), she must have swore to to come back to her members that way and the teacher is just an engineer in helping that act to be done as expected. It only God knows the truth. May God forgive her soul and give the family the fortitude to bear the loss
ReplyDeleteWeda sick or not, i dont believe child should b flooged so much that he/she faints...its just wrong
ReplyDeleteCApital punishment must be stopped in Nigera
ReplyDeleteToo bad but flogging is allowed in this part of the world. Children are full of foolishness and there is need to apply it whenever it is necessary as a corrective measure but not to the extreme.
ReplyDeletehhmmm, God will help us all, the child might be sick or going thru some Medical imbalance, it was just unfortunate that this happen while she was been beating by the teacher.
ReplyDeletebeating a child is not a bad idea, but o prefer to punish a child than beating, by giving the child heavy exerciser
may her soul rest in peace.
As of the lady with smelling Vagina, always watch your vaginal anything u urinate with clean water not wit tissue, and if you can get Beta dine vaginal wash solution, its very nice.
Drink a lot of water, eat fruit and wash your vaginal with clean water all the time.
Warning==== pls don't use any type of soap or any type of medicated soap its dangerous.

ReplyDeleteam a teacher n i flogged my pupils dis morning for not doing dia homework. a few strokes of a cane sends d message home cos children don't take u serzly wen u only warn or threaten witout punishment n d most commonly used punishment in nigeria is flogging. a few strokes of d cane cannot kill so i believe d child's got health issues or it's spiritual.
ReplyDeletelets not judge the tutor it might be that girl has been killed in dream s0 lets nt blame d teacher.

I personally tink the was sick!bt dis shld be a warning to all teachers nt to flog pupils dey re nt cows.
ReplyDeletePls don't condemn the teacher just yet! We don't even know exactly the extent of the beating! I guess the girl might have been sick and the beating aggravated everything! I don't concur with careless beating but if students aren't disciplined,then where is the sense of responsibility? Take a look at lagos public schools!No discipline! Anyway there should be a balance!
ReplyDeleteIf u'v eva bn in a position to teach even as a corper den u wont run ur mouth anyhow..evn d bible says 'spare d rod, spoil d child' floggin is necessary but it shld be done cautiously n y'all talkin of oda ways of punishin children couldnt mention any..d gal jx had a date wif death n d woman wz jx unfortunate 2 be caught in dat mess...some of u linda included would do worse, if u were in her shoes
ReplyDeletemy 10years old brother was flogged in the head by his teacher and it resulted to a severe brain damage, he gets seizures almost everyday like an epileptic patient,afterwards he starts acting mad, biting and running around, we have taken him everywhere in naija dat we can but nobody seams 2 kno wat 2 do for him(hospitals specialists in lagos and outside, abeokuta ibadan ,the list is endless..we cant even sue the school because we would rada spend the court case money on him dat the court..my family has been tru hell, my mom is always in tears..nigerians should please do something about this harsh way of punishing kids in the name of discipline *tears* my heart goes out to the family of da kid
ReplyDeleteSad tale, may her soul RIP.
ReplyDeleteOn a less serious note, what's it with Nigerian stories and conflicting reports? On this occasion I'm referring to the claim of the ordering of the school's closure by the MOE which she rebuffed. So unprofessional, and it makes us look like a nation filled with little wooden boys...and girls.
Someone asked how you can flog a child to death. Its very easy,any thing could have been the cause. Let's reserve the ryt to flog children to their parents....children have different issues that the teachers do not know about....it's sad....I guess it's tym for teachers to device more constructive modes of punishments
ReplyDeletedis s end time people,so many things re happening.may her soul rest in d lord.
ReplyDeletemidterm in October... No longer November. Ok oh.

ReplyDeleteDat child may have been ill b4 d incident occured, d teacher should'nt take all d blame, it isn't easy teaching with deserted instruction.....follow me on twitter, @ameboexecutive, i'll ff back
ReplyDeleteWhy teachers are still allowed to hit children? Now this poor 12 year old girl is dead, just because she did not do her homework! The teacher should be banned from school and she should go to prison for many years. Some people act like they have no heart!

I read the story in one of the newspapers and was a bit confused for a moment. What is the commissioner trying to hide? How can the school be on mid-term break and a student flogged to death? Or did the teacher go to her house to flog her? Haba Mrs commissioner, I also went to secondary school oooo. I don't think the teacher got angry cos the kid didn't do her home work. I think the teacher must have been going through some hard times like maltreatment from her husband at home (just saying) so she seized the opportunity to express her anger. All the same, she must be made to dance to the tune of the music.
ReplyDeleteTo those who are saying "let's not blame the teacher, the child probably has health issues"......well go tell that to her mother's face if she won't bite you. As much as I would have agreed with your opinion, this kid is dead so there's no justification whatsoever.
ReplyDelete@janded u must b an illiterate. I just went through ur blog now and it was full of what i consider the uneducated rantings of a 3yr old with down syndrome. But i'm not surprised cuz anyone that can post a comment like the one u did above must have an IQ in the range of a mosquito larvae.
ReplyDeleteFollowing your logic all africans should not relate with Nigerians again because a group of Nigerians lynched four boys to death. And all Europeans should as well not associate with Africans. And if by chance there is lyf on mars let the martians sit and make crude and racist jokes about earthlings cuz we all are the barbaric murderers of four innocent boys....

ReplyDeleteI guess I was too quick to comment on your comment. i went back and looked at it and saw you were just being objective. I apologize. I guess we all have our opinions. However, there is no need to compare me with a child who has down syndrome as that is a touchy topic.
@Favourite Onwuemene One more thing, thanks for promoting my blog :)
ReplyDelete@janded my pleasure...
