EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Lagos State Government has warned members of the public to desist from distributing footage of the Chrisland School Video.
The press reported that pupils from the elite private school located in Victoria Garden City had embarked on a trip to Dubai to participate in the World School Games between March 10 and 13, 2022 when the incident happened.
Following the incident, the school authorities suspended the student indefinitely, stating that she was “a major actor” in an “immoral act”.
But the mother of the student claimed that her daughter was drugged and r*ped by some male students of the school.
Efforts to reach the school for clarification proved abortive as of the time of filing this report.
Following the controversy generated by the Chrisland School video, the Lagos State Government shut down all branches of the school in the state.
The state government, in a statement on Monday, warned citizens that sharing the Chrisland School video amounts to child s*x tape and could attract up to a 14-year jail term.
“This is to reassure members of the public of the State Government’s commitment to safety and child protection.
“[This is] especially in ensuring that all child-centred institutions within the state, formulate and implement policies and systems that are compliant with the Executive Order (NO.EO/AAO8 of 2016), Lagos State Safeguarding and Child Protection Program.
“We also use this medium to remind the general public of the implications pertaining to engaging in any visual depiction of s*xually explicit conduct involving a child committing an offence.
