A 12-year-old pupil of a secondary
school in Awka, Anambra State, Miss Chidimma Ukachukwu, has died after
she was allegedly flogged by her teacher for failing to do her homework.
A reliable source in the school told the
News Agency of Nigeria in Awka on Tuesday that the girl died on Thursday last week after she was flogged.
The source explained that the girl
fainted after being flogged severally by a female teacher and was
subsequently rushed to an undisclosed hospital, where she died.
The source also told NAN that the
Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Uju Okeke, then ordered the closure of
the school as a result of the incident.
A NAN correspondent, who visited the
girl’s family home, soon after she was buried on Tuesday in Awka,
reports that the family was in grief.
The girl’s father, Mr. Simeon Ukachukwu,
confirmed the incident, saying it was a sad development. He added that
it was an act of God.
