Chrisland Schools Speaks on Plans to Exhume Late Student’s Body

News - Women's Perspective

The Management of Chrisland Schools has refuted the alleged plans to exhume the body of the late 12-year-old student, Whitney Adeniran.

The mother of the deceased in a post shared on Instagram on Friday said that the school authority has called the police and is demanding a repeat of the autopsy.

In its response, the school management said in a statement on Sunday, March 5, 2023, that the death of Whitney was a huge loss to the school and is still saddened over the incident.

The statement noted that the purported plan to exhume Whitney’s corpse is false instead, plans are underway to immortalise Whitney’s name.

The statement read: “The Management of Chrisland School is aware of the developments around the autopsy report on the unfortunate death of one of her students, Whitney Adeniran.

“We are once again by this statement, expressing our deepest regret. We are deeply saddened and sorry about Whitney’s death. We are remorseful and sorry to Whitney’s parents. We are sorry to our parents and the entire community that hosts our school. We are also very sorry to the nation at large. It was a huge loss to the School. 

”We express equal measure of apology to the Nigeria Media, another critical stakeholder, in case we have sent unbearably quiet signals. We have been quiet because this was a death so shocking, we opted more for introspection and moral rectitude rather than strutting around the Media space to seize narratives.

“Moreso, we considered it imperative to allow the parents and indeed the entire Adeniran family the honour of their privacy as we all mourn this unfortunate loss. Whitney Adeniran was a bright and lovely student. She was popular and friendly. Her memory lives with us.

“We hereby vehemently refute the claim making the rounds that Chrisland School intends to exhume Whitney’s body. We have no such plan and assure the public that we are also parents in mourning and will not do or subscribe to anything that paints such insensitive optics that prevents our dear daughter from resting. We assure you all that no such thing will happen. Rather than do this, plans are underway to immortalize Whitney’s name so she can remain indelible in our consciousness. This is without prejudice to the ongoing Corona inquest but it is a honour we owe her.
