Photos/Video: Dowen College Parents Forum hold candlelight procession for Sylvester Oromoni

Members of the Dowen College Parents Forum held a candlelight procession in Lagos on Wednesday evening, December 8, in honor of 12-year-old Sylvester Oromoni, a student of the school who died on November 30 after he was allegedly tortured by his seniors in the school dormitory.

The parents who wore black tops with the inscription “Dowen Parents mourn’” expressed sadness over the death of Sylvester. They also demanded that the little boy gets justice.

WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that the deceased’s cousin, Perry Oromoni, has taken to social media to alleged that some senior pupils of the college beat him up in his hostel room for refusing to join a cult.

But the school denied the claim, stating that the boy complained of pain in his legs and hip following an injury he sustained while playing football.

The Lagos State Government had shut down the school indefinitely to ensure thorough investigation.
