The Lead British International school girl Namtira who was bullied by her school mates has threatened the school authorities to take action and punish her abusers before 48 hours or face lawsuit.
A letter from her lawyers, Deji Adeyanju and Co, to the school reads
“We are Solicitors to Miss. Namtira Bwala (acting through her next friend), hereinafter referred to as our client, on whose instruction we act.
Our client and several other parents in Lead British International School have informed us and we verily believe them that this act of b¥llying is a reoccurring issue in the school, and despite several attempts to draw the school’s attention to it, the issue has persisted, leaving our client tr@umatised from the emotional and physical effect of the oppressive acts by these dare devil b¥llies.
Regrettably, our client has once again, been subjected to physical att@cks in the hands of these b¥llies, with the video of the act going viral on social media.
Sadly, rather than address this issue head-on by imposing severe sanctions on the student b¥llies, the school has issued a timid statement lacking in force or recognition of the severity of the situation at hand.
Our client completely dissociate herself from the statement issued by the school on April 22, 2024 wherein a case of battery was unconscionably referred to as an “incident between minors.
We state that it is this type of statements, coupled with the school’s gross negligence, that has enabled the student b¥llies, leading to increased incidents of unchecked b¥llying in the school, an environment that should ordinarily be a safe space for students.
Sequel to the foregoing, we have our client’s instruction to demand for the immediate investigation and the pronouncement of the stiffest possible sanctions in the student’s rule book, on Ms. Maryam Hassan, Miss Faliya and nine other students who have formed a cult of b¥llies in Lead British International School, Gwarimpa, Abuja.
Please note that if the school fails to sanction the student b¥llies within 48 hours of the receipt of this letter, we have our client’s further instruction to seek an immediate and severe legal redress against Lead British International School, Gwarimpa, without further recourse to you.”’’
