Chrisland School In Another Controversy, Over Whitney Adeniran’s Death

By Kofoworola Oke

Chrisland Schools is embroiled in another controversy this time, over the death of one of her pupils, 12 year old Whitney Adeniran.

The last time, it had to do with immorality involving some of her students in far-away Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

In the latest, Adeniran Whitney reportedly lost her life during the school’s Inter-house sports event that took place at Agege stadium on Thursday.

The latest appears to have become one controversy too many for the school, thereby putting her reputation in jeopardy

The late girl’s mother is not only crying her eyes out, but also pleading for justice.

In a video that has gone viral, she said the child left home enthusiastic about the school inter house sporting event, hale and hearty, only for something quite unexpected to happen hours later.

“During the match past, I looked, the first house matched, I didn’t see my child. The second house matched, but I didn’t see my child. The third house matched, but I didn’t see my child. I became worried”,  she said.

It was in her frantic effort to locate the girl, sensing also that something may have gone wrong, that she met a student who revealed to her that Whitney had fainted and was rushed to a clinic.

Ironically, and to her utter surprise, no staff of the school had called to let her know the positon of things.

It was after she met a staff, they said her daughter had been rushed to the hospital.

Rather than Whitney herself, it was a corpse that the woman met upon her arrival at the hospital.

“I went in there and saw my daughter’s corpse. I saw my daughter on her deathbed. She was already dead when I saw her. She was drenched and soaked to her skin. Water was dripping out. I screamed, I called on God. I shouted. I called on God”

In his account, Whitney’s father,  Dr. Michael Adeyemi Adeniran, it was the greatest shock of his life.

“To the biggest shock of my life by 1 pm in the afternoon, I got a call from my wife that she was informed that our daughter slumped at the inter-house sport and she was rushed to the clinic.”

“My wife called me urgently, I left my office to the place and found my 12year old daughter lying dead on the ground. I asked questions about what happened to my daughter and the school authority could not get me any information as to what happened to my child in their care.

“I gave Chrisland school a healthy vibrant young girl what Chrisland returned to me is a dead child. My entire family is in deep sorrow but the school Authorities claimed they know nothing about my daughter’s death and all they know is that my daughter slumped and died.

“Since we started asking this question. The school has been asking us to back down from the autopsy and I know they know their way into the system. I am calling on the pathology department of @lasuth to please be honest with their result. Lagos State government, Nigerian Government, please intervene,” The bereaved father wrote in a social media post

Mrs. Adeniran speaking in a video interaction kept lamenting:

“How can a 12-year-old have a cardiac arrest? No pre-existing medical or heart condition. Even if they claim it was cardiac arrest, how can one single arrest kill a healthy teenager?”
