President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the death of Sylvester Oromoni, a student of Dowen College, in Lagos State, saying those involved will not be spared.
The President in a statement by Garba Shehu, his Senior Special Assistant on Media & Publicity, said if this incident is truly arising from bullying or cultism, the President assures that it must act as a trigger leading to a permanent solution to this recurring problem.
He described Sylvester, as one of our bright youngsters doing excellently in school, bringing joy to the family.
The President said, “I share the anger and grief up and down the country following this incident. On behalf of my family and I, and the government of the federation, I convey our heartfelt condolences to the Oromoni family, the government and people of Lagos State and give the firm assurance that this incident will be thoroughly investigated and the appropriate punishment meted out to all those who are culpable.
“The President urges the Police to continue the ongoing investigation until they get to the root of the matter in order for the law to take its course, assuring that justice will be done, no matter who is involved.”
