Leading Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo, has sent a very
clear message to the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu over the death
Sylvester Oromoni, a 12-year-old student of Dowen College, Lagos State.
The death of Oromoni Jnr has sparked agitations from
Nigerian celebrities, who are demanding justice for the junior secondary school
boy.
Oromoni was said to have been bullied and beaten by fellow
students and later died of supposed injuries from the beating.
The school has, however, continued to deny all the
allegations, stating that Oromoni was neither bullied nor beaten but only
complained of hip pain after playing football.
But the victim’s cousin had flooded social media with photos
and video evidence, which corroborated the fact that the 12-year-old was
bullied and beaten.
The Lagos State Government has closed the school
indefinitely, as investigations continue.
And Kanayo, in a video he shared on Instagram on Friday,
told the Sanwo-Olu tthat shutting down the school was not enough.
The actor made this call in a video on his Instagram page
which he captioned, “Dowen college must pay for this #justiceforsylvester.”
“The Governor of Lagos State, our own dear Babajide
Sanwo-Olu. After the EndSARS protest and report, you have another challenge on
your hands,” he said.
“The case of the 12-year-old Sylvester – your son – cannot
be swept under the carpet. It is not enough to shut down the school.
“Do not – Your Excellency – Do not allow people to take the law into their own hands. It’s something that should be brought to book immediately. Thank you, Your Excellency.”
