Members of the Ijaw Youth council on Thursday, staged a protest in front of Dowen College, Lekki insisting that, the school cannot resume on Monday when justice was yet to be served.
One of their leaders said, “We are here today to express our anger and grievances with the fake and corrupt report released by the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecution that this school where cultists are being trained is cleared. They cleared the same people that killed our son without trial, without concluded investigation; they said they cleared this school to open.
“If they open this school, the whole Ijaw nation will come here, let them try it and see, if they open this school on Monday, the whole Ijaw nation will come, we will come with our school bags, feeding bottles and join them here. Let them bring armoured tanks here, we have the capacity.
“If they refuse to give us justice, this school will not be open, we want to send a message to the governor of this state; I believe he is a well-trained person, if he supports injustice, then this school will not have peace.
“Nobody can stop us, when this thing happened, we said okay, we want justice, we folded our hands, this is the first time in the whole world we heard that before an investigation is concluded, before a case got to court, all of a sudden, during holiday, they tried the case in their houses and cleared them.
“Our son cannot die and their children will walk in here, it’s not possible, we want justice, justice is not done served.”
The Lagos State government had cleared five students and employees of Dowen College linked to the death of Sylvester Oromoni and ordered their immediate release of any person still held custody by the police on Wednesday.
Based on the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecution’s advice, Ms Adetutu Oshinusi, the result of the toxicology did not indicate the presence of any toxic or poisonous substance in Oromoni’s body and findings show “no prima facie case of murder, involuntary manslaughter and or malicious administering of poison with intent to harm against the five students.
