FCT Police Deploy Officers To Hon. Wole Oke’s School Over Bullying Cases
Officers from the Federal Capital Territory Police Command have been deployed to the Lead British International School, Abuja, over viral videos of bullying.
This was confirmed by the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, in a statement on Tuesday.
The spokesperson noted that the move was a proactive response to alarms raised by some members of the public regarding videos circulating on social media depicting the bullying of students at the school.
She also revealed that the police were on top of the situation while noting that the investigation was ongoing.
Adeh said, “The FCT Police Command is on top of the situation and has deployed seasoned officers to the school premises for investigations and to forestall any possible breakdown of law and order.”
Osun Defender had reported that an X user, @moooyeeeee, had on Monday night posted two videos of a female student of the school being repeatedly slapped by another female classmate.
This has generated a lot of reactions, with many calling for a proper investigation into the matter.
Also, a woman said to be a relative of the girl who was bullied was caught on camera slapping the alleged perpetrator.
