The management of Deeper Life High School, Akwa Ibom, has finally responded to a viral video of woman who accused the school of poor treatment of her child.
The 11 year old JSS 1 student whose name was not mentioned, narrated his ordeal in a video interview with his mum.
His disappointed mother, while in a video interview, complained bitterly of how her son looked emaciated due to poor feeding and inadequate medical treatment.
The affected student also suffered sexual molestation after being moved to the hostel meant for senior students.
His mum revealed she earlier had terrible dream about her son which prompted her to go see her son in school and while she inquired of her boy to know what had happened to him,he refused to disclose anything because of the threats he received from the deviant senior students.
