The management of Chrisland Schools has tendered a public apology following the death of its pupil, Whitney Adeniran.
Whitney died on February 9, 2023, during her school’s inter-house sports held at the Agege stadium, Lagos.
In a Press release titled “We Are Sorry” via the school’s Instagram page, today, March 5, 2023, Chrisland Schools tendered the apology whilst giving its reasons for being quiet all this while.
“We are deeply saddened and sorry about Whitney’s death. We are remorseful and sorry to Whitney’s parents. We are sorry to our parents and the entire community that hosts our school. We are also very sorry to the nation at large. It was a huge loss to the school.
“We express an equal measure of apology to the Nigeria Media, another critical stakeholder, in case we have sent unbearably quiet signals. We have been quiet because this death was so shocking, we opted more for introspection and moral rectitude rather than strutting around the Media space to seize narratives.”
