Lead British International School in Abuja has been closed by the management following a bullying incident that gained widespread attention on social media. 

The videos posted by @mooyeeeeeee showed a student named Maryam Hassan being slapped multiple times by another female student, sparking outrage among online s. 

In response to the incident, the school authorities decided to conduct a thorough investigation and announced a 3-day closure during a meeting held on Tuesday. 

A senior staff member stated that the temporary shutdown was necessary to address the issue and ensure the well-being of everyone involved. 

We highlighted a tense moment during the meeting when a parent confronted the student responsible for the bullying and slapped her. 

The student, who faced heavy criticism, was escorted onto the school premises by older men, while another parent questioned her actions and expressed concern for the victim.

The student attempted to leave the situation to avoid a confrontation, but the enraged parent pushed her and questioned, "Did you give birth to her?" The student mumbled incomprehensible words, prompting the angry parent to slap her until other elderly individuals intervened to de-escalate the situation.

The Lead British International School had previously announced that an investigation was underway. In a statement released on Monday, the school mentioned that the victimized student is receiving assistance from the counseling unit to overcome the emotional and psychological effects of the incident.

The school emphasized its commitment to providing a secure and ive learning environment for all students and assured that , including counseling services, would be extended to the victim and her family.

Furthermore, the school stated that they would work with the perpetrators and their families to offer counseling and implement disciplinary actions to address their unacceptable behavior.

An investigation has been promptly initiated, with a dedicated team assigned to thoroughly examine the incident by gathering information, reviewing video evidence, and interviewing witnesses to determine the underlying causes.

Nice one

Na this kind parent I dey like, and e fit be say no be e pikin dem bully

Hmmmm

Emotion at play
Still wrong slapping the child
Na the teacher or principal Dem suppose slap
Or the parent of the child. Make e be man to man.

The bully na spoilt brat wey Dem agbado miscreants go later serve as servants.

All these over priced oyinbo wanna be school. The government will shed in their lights on the activities of these so called private schools both secondary and tertiary institutions, the discovery will be mild blowing.

Bully here bully there , yen,yen,yen.

Our society is so rotten now. In my time a senior would ask me to go and pick my cutlass, he would take me to an open field and measure up to 100m portion for me to cut every morning before assembly. They would flog us with cane. You dare not report them

Nowadays, we keep sparing the rod and spoiling the child. The so-called bullying nowadays were a commonplace in those days. They only made us become a much stronger generation. In many schools,.you dare not beat a student nowadays. Nonsense! In the first time I toasted a girl as an SS2 student...heeey, my senior caught us, punished me like kilodee. He said, so you want to end your career at sec schl abi? You want to end up in a village with her after integrating her? I can't forget that day. The fear made me to not have time for girls till I gained ission, graduated and went for my nysc before I knew what's called gf. The punishment really shaped me up.

In 2016 @ Day waterman college where each student pays up to 5.3m naira per session, a student approached his teacher openly and wooed her, even promising to give her triple what the shool was paying her if she could allow him sleep with her. What bullying could be worse than that from a student to his teacher ? Yet, they couldn't do anything about it cos once the student reports to his parents that they're punishing him, they'd withdraw him and the school wouldn't want to lose money so they just ignored that.

Who born that student in our time? Na to flog am openly for assembly ground and call his parents to take him away. That would be his end in that school and it's environs. Today, the reverse is the case. I imagine what the next generation would look like.

Big man, big trouble.

We have many pressing issues in this country than this abeg.

W

ok na

Very correct!

That parent should have been allowed to slap the irresponsible and badly trained girl several times to feel the effect.

Me sef here, the matter dey pain me inside blood. That girl should be released to some touts like her for some brain resetting beating.

The person recording should also be protected

It's the victim's calmness for me. Sha, I weep for this generation

The school management has failed in their responsibility. Do you want to tell me a school such as this doesn't have CCTV to monitor the student activities. The parent should have slapped the school headteacher instead of the culprit.

I think that was implied.

To those of you guys saying it was wrong for the parent to slap the bully… I don’t think Bullies are normal people again, dem too get strong twisted mind, the moment they chose to dish out emotional and physical traumas to their victims, that’s the moment their shield of adolescent immunity ends.
That bully deserves to be taught a great deal, in such a way that she becomes anti-bully herself.

The parent that slapped the bully deserves a medal.

I pity the girl that was bullied sha.
She will be in trauma and the scene will play in her head for a long time.

This incidence will also change her positively or negatively.

I pray it's positive and that she learn how to stand for herself.

If people recording any act of crime are also prosecuted, we'll have peace with nonsense video clips

All these glorified Secondary School, public school is the best.

Slappers British school.

Eye for Eye

she is slapping her for slapping her daughter.
That's bulling.
She didn't teach her daughter to fight for herself.
She have to go and fight for daughter..
Shame!!

Beat the bully spirit out of her before she becomes something else.
I hate bully either old or young.

She deserved more...

The power os chocho media

No one touches my kids in school anymore.
I have 4 boys, a set of twins and two younger ones.
The rules are simple, any student touches your younger one y'all go beat them up.
A teacher touches you I will take care of it.
My babymama called me to say she went to pick them from school and walked in on the teacher knocking my son on the head.
Few days later I returned from Abuja, went to get them from school myself, I simply called the teacher aside and told him " This is the first and very last time I will have this kinda conversation with you inside the school compound, the next time you touch my son I would be waiting for you outside the school and I won't be talking"
I have also informed the headteacher, if it happens again, I am withdrawing my 4 sons and someone will spend a long time in the hospital.

I am an advocate of not sparing the rode but teachers are now going to school to unleash their frustration on kids.
I am not paying half a million for you to turn my son to a punching bag

Good
Justice for Namtira
Shut them down if they place money over the safety of kids
