A woman has claimed
that her 10-year-old daughter was raped during a trip to Dubai which was
organised by Chrisland School.
Pupils from the private school located in Victoria Garden
City were in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), to participate in the World
School Games between March 10 and 13, 2022.
But in a now-viral video shared by Ubi Franklin, the music
executive, via his Instagram page on
Monday, the woman also claimed that footage of the incident has been shared
multiple times on social media.
She said she was not aware of what transpired in Dubai till another parent showed her the video of the incident.
The woman also accused the school of trying to cover up the
case and demanded justice.
“As I was beating my daughter, she opened up to me and said
the school threatened her not to speak out… My daughter was dying in silence
and I did not know. Every day, I’ll be forcing her out of the room but she
wouldn’t want to go to school,” she said.
“I’m begging Nigerians to help me because Chrisland
attempted to hide the issue, they wanted to push us out of the way and my
daughter was going psychologically insane. I need help as a mother. My daughter
is not okay.
“They took her for
pregnancy tests without my knowledge and lied to us that it was COVID-19 test.
They did the tests almost three times. Please do they require blood or urine
for COVID-19 test? I did not know until the whole issue became public.”
The woman said her daughter was suspended from school after
they called the management to ask questions about the incident.
“To crown it all, because we started confronting them that
we are aware of what has happened, they sent her a suspension letter,” she
added.
“When I asked her what happened, my daughter said on the day
of the incident they went out in the morning to have breakfast and one of the
boys begged her to borrow him her phone charger which she did.
“She said later in
the evening, the boy called her room and asked her to come for the charger in
his room. So, she went there.
“When she got to the room to get the charger, they opened
the door and one of the boys asked her to go and get her charger inside the
toilet. She said it was when she entered the toilet that the boys surrounded
her and asked her to drink a substance.
“She said they were all under the influence of drugs after
that and she did not know what she was doing again. My daughter said the boys
asked her to climb on them while one of them was filming and sending out the
videos.”
When contacted, a top source in the school said a statement
will soon be released with respect to the matter.
The source also called on the public not to embrace “a
one-sided narrative,” adding that the school takes issues concerning its pupils
seriously.
Chrisland School was in the public eye in October last year after Mercy Johnson, the Nollywood actress, claimed her 8-year-old daughter was bullied by its teacher.
