Blessing Whitney, a 12-year-old Chrisland student who died during the school’s inter-house sports, died as a result of electrocution, according to Adeniran, her daughter’s mother.
On Wednesday, she announced it in an Instagram live video.
In the video, she said, “I want to thank everyone for their support. Your phone calls and messages have helped us get through this difficult time.
“The autopsy results have been released, and Desola was electrocuted. My daughter died as a result of electrocution. For the past two weeks, I have been subjected to trauma. It will be three weeks tomorrow since my baby died. The school made me believe I was insane. They began to push the narrative that she was sick; that she was sickly. They distributed letters and publications.
“People made fun of me and my family. My child died as a result of electrocution. I told the school that I didn’t want any problems. I only want answers. They arrived at my house and knelt.
I begged, I pleaded, I said ‘Mrs Amao please, I don’t know how autopsy is being done but I have browsed it and the image is scary. Please, my daughter is already dead; do not subject her to that ordeal; they will butcher her. I beg you, in the name of God, and as a mother, to assist me in investigating and determining what occurred.’
“She stated that she is unsure. They refused to conduct an investigation.
“My daughter was slaughtered for an autopsy. She was opened up. They extracted kidney, liver, stomach contents, blood, brain, and bone marrow from her. Omodesola was slaughtered solely to protect Chrisland’s reputation.”
Whitney’s father, Dr. Michael Adeniran, had previously claimed that his daughter died of electrocution prior to the autopsy.
Meanwhile, in a statement, the school administration stated that the deceased collapsed in “public view and not under any hidden circumstances,” and that she was rushed to the nearest medical facility for first aid.
