Human Rights activist, Adetoun Onajobi, popularly known as Just Adetoun, has called for the immediate closure of Christ-Mitots School over assault on a 3-year-old toddler by his teacher.
The activist had, in a post on her Instagram handle, charged Lagos State governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, to order the closure of the school located in Ikorodu.
The visibly upset activist disclosed that she is heading to the school and hoped not to meet to the teacher who was identified as Stella Nwadigo.
She expressed that children are meant to be encouraged to read and not compelled.
“My attention has been drawn to the video of Christ-Mitots School. Like dis na Ikorodu I dey go. Please Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, we are ordering for the immediate closure of the school. This is happening under Lagos State and on a norms, it’s not supposed to happen under Lagos State.
“So I just want to assume that the teacher dey dream Because you can not a child, a minor! Na by force to read book? We are not compelling our children to read book, we are encouraging them to read.” Just Adetoun said.
Recall that NPO earlier reported the disturbing video of the teacher physically assaulting the 3-year-old boy over his inability to write numerical figures.
