DOWEN College in Lekki, Lagos state, yesterday, said it was awaiting the directive of the state government to announce its resumption date.

A member of the Advisory Board of the college, Folarin Shobo, said: “The government is keenly interested in the case, so we are bound by the decision of Lagos State Ministry of Education, the supervisory ministry. We are waiting for them to do the needful.

“We are not here to argue with the family, we are also mourning. The school, his teachers and his classmates are all mourning the loss of a bright young man. He was a boy that was full of great potentials.”

This statement came in as human rights lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana, SAN, said that his legal team will establish the ‘massive cover-up’ in the controversy trailing the death of Sylvester Oromoni.

This followed the controversies trailing the death of the 12-year-old student of the college, who died from injuries sustained during an alleged assault by five of his colleagues who wanted to initiate him into cultism.
