My niece is just 6 years old
“I am heartbroken. This is happening to me. Me ooooo. Myhairven. I never imagined it could happen to me.
My family needs help. “
The school responded, calling the accusations “false and misleading”.
It added that they will “not hesitate to invoke the full wrath of the law over persons responsible in damaging the school reputation.”

The aunt of the victim shared the school’s statement as she criticized the tone of the statement.
She said, “As released by the school,this matter cannot be swept under the carpet.
“A 6 year old was sexually abused and this is is all you can say as a school???
“A child that was kept under your care ???”
