BethNews gathered this ugly tragedy struck on the 9th of November 2020 in Araromi-Ilogbo junior Secondary School Badagry Local Government Area, got involved in the collapse of a hand rail attached to a building in the school when one of their teacher goes by this popular Yoruba nickname "Ma lo eson" allegedly running after those students who fell from upstairs and died at a spot except Rasaq who was rushed down to Badagri General Hospital.
According to our insiders says Rasaq was the last student who died at Badagry General Hospital, Badagry town.
The dead student was said to have been referred to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, LASUTH, in Ikeja due to the intensity of his injury, but the hospital demanded a down payment of a whopping N500,000 (five hundred thousand naira) before treatment would commence.
Insiders alleged Lagos State commissioner for Education, Mrs. Folashade Adefisayo was contacted immediately the teaching hospital made the outrageous demand but she was not forthcoming. Sadly and anonymously Rasaq gave up the ghost before help could come. He was buried on Friday, November 15, 2020.
Despite the allocation of N48 billion to the education sector in 2020, an increase of 60% over the 2019 provision of N30 billion, Lagos State schools still experience infrastructural decays and it was learnt that the broken handrail had displayed signs of damage and nothing was done to repair it before the unfortunate incident.
According to our source said the same incident also occurred last year November.
To the greatest surprised and according to the information reaching BethNews says some of those students who was involved in this tragedy their school uniform was allegedly removed from them in order to convinced their parents and passers by that they all involved in road ghastly accident.
BethNews has spoken with Rasaq mother and two other women who promised to furnish us more details.
