Nollywood actress Halima Abubakar has weighed on death of Dowen School Boarder Sylvester Oromoni, who died as a result of bullying from senior students.
The 12 year old was allegedly beaten severely by senior students for refusing to join a cult. He sustained fatal injuries and died on Tuesday, November 30th, a few days shy of December 4th, which would have been his 12th birthday.
The sad incident has continued to elicit outrage from the general public forcing the Lagos state government to shut down school and begin investigation on his death.
Reacting to the news, Halima Abubakar shared her own experience with bullying in both secondary and university levels. She also added that they’re also bullies Nollywood and threatened to expose them all.
“The perpetrators should be brought out and justice served so Sylvester can have closure and finally rest in peace. Bullying is actually rampant. They keep covering it up. I’m a border and I know how schools cover crimes in boarding schools #justiceforslyvester #saynotobullies,” she wrote.
