Iniobong Archibong, the father of Don Davis, a student of Deeper Life High School, Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, who was allegedly molested by his seniors, has revealed that the school authorities told the family to withdraw the case.
A video made by one Deborah Okezie, Davis’ mother, made rounds on social media recently. In the video, she’d lamented and beckoned for help from Nigerians, to help her get justice for her son who had been molested by his senior students and starved consistently at the Uyo Campus of the school despite the full payment of school fees.
Judging from the things that were said in the video Mrs. Okezie made, she had gone to pick him up on Friday from the school and was the last person to pick up her child there.
However, upon seeing her child, she noticed that he was sick and was not being attended to. She also alleged that she noticed her son was not able to sit properly, which prompted her to check his buttocks.
From the look of his anus, Deborah said her son had been sexually molested. This was later confirmed by doctors at the hospital where Don Davis was taken. He was put on a drip at the hospital and is currently on the 12th one.
Don Davis claimed that his seniors in the school inserted their fingers into his anus.
Speaking with SaharaReporters, Archibong stated that the state Superintendent of the Church, Deeper Life Christian Ministry, had visited the hospital where the boy was being attended to alongside the principal of the school, Ndidi Solomon; chairman of the school’s medical forum and another prominent member of the school board.
He said, “They all came here yesterday. Before the superintendent arrived, the three of them came. They were on their knees begging us to withdraw the video from the Internet but I told them we had no control over that. It had gone viral already.”
Archibong stated that the State Superintendent of the church expressed shock over the feeding conditions of students in the school.
He said, “The superintendent said he approves N2.2 million every week for the feeding of the students and that he didn’t understand why this could have happened. He said the principal has to explain.”
The distraught father said rather than explain, the principal was begging on her knees.
“She apologised, stating that she was the one that caused the incident. She said when the boy’s mother (my wife) came on November 11, and talked about it, she promised to expel those children from school but never did.”
Archibong added that the Akwa Ibom State Government has set up a committee to investigate the matter.
“The Commissioner for Education and some other state government officials were here with us this morning in the hospital. Members of the investigation committee are going to the school.
“The issue does not have to do with my child alone, what about other children that are being abused?”
The father said he was sure that justice would be served on the issue.
“These things should not continue; brutality and bullying should stop in our schools,” he said.
He said the case had been reported to the police and that a meeting had been scheduled for Monday afternoon with the Deputy Commissioner of Police in the state.

In his defense, he said “a date isn’t an avenue to display that you’re a foodie! You are coming to have a discussion in the actual sense, the meal is just for refreshment ( I assume you’d have had your fill before coming) so focusing on the food and crushing bones is needless!”

Scientists at the Africa Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases (ACEGID), at the Redeemers University in Ede, Osun State have said the new variant of the coronavirus currently causing panic and concern in the United Kingdom and European Union has been identified in Nigeria.
In a publication shared on Virological, a website for the global Genomics community, scientists at the Africa Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases at Ede revealed that they found the same variant “lineage B.1.1.7” existing in Osun State since August 3rd when the first sample was collected.
The publication also stated that another sample, also from Osun State, collected in October, correspondingly showed the presence of this new variant.
In an interview with Premiumtimes, Professor Christian Happi who is the Director at the Africa Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases (ACEGID), said,
“the B.1.1.7 lineage we found in Nigeria, predating the one described in the UK, has also been observed to rise rapidly in the UK over the past four weeks, indicating the plausible increased spread of the virus by specific non-synonymous mutations in the spike protein.”
He refused to attribute the new variance found in Nigeria to the spike in the number of confirmed COVID19 cases in the country in recent times.
“We however haven’t observed such rapid rise of the lineage in Nigeria and do not have sufficient evidence to indicate that the B.1.1.7 lineage is contributing to increased transmission of the virus in Nigeria,” he said.
Speaking further, Happi said,
“At the moment, only about 1% of the genomes from Nigeria belong to the new SARS-CoV-2 variant (B.1.1.7 lineage) and one of them predates the first description in the UK. However, this might change in the next few weeks when we sequence more samples from the recently reported surge of covid-19 in Nigeria. Other reported mutations such as the N501Y, A570D, and the HV 69 – 70 deletion in the spike protein have not been detected in our genomes yet, this could also be associated with the non-increase of the lineage in Nigeria currently.
In as much as the full effect of this mutation isn’t known yet and it is still being studied, the importance of a robust genomic surveillance system cannot be overemphasized as we can identify and report changes in the genomes of pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 that are of public health interest”

A woman who had an agonizing stomach upset rushed to the toilet to relieve herself only to realize she was giving birth.
New-mum, Billie Ward had no idea she was in labour. She had been warned she probably wouldn’t give birth on her due date so thought her tummy pains were a false alarm.
In her words ;
“[The day before the birth] I had a few pains at 5am. There was nothing too abnormal but I’d been having these pains for a few days.
“I was also booked in for a sweep on the day, but the midwife had said ‘oh no, your cervix isn’t favourable. You’ve got to shorten it and you’re not going to have your baby on your due date’.
“At 6pm that night I was having period-type pains, it wasn’t abnormal or anything that concerned me.
“I came downstairs at 3.45am. I was biting down on the sofa because I could feel this pain and genuinely thought it was a poo.”
The 22-year-old had been in pain and straining on the loo for around an hour before calling 999 and finding out she was giving birth.
“By this point, no waters had broken. Every time I pushed, I thought ‘I don’t know what that was’. I’d never had a baby…
“I rang 999 at 4.45am, it was not okay. I was biting down and scratching myself because I was in so much pain.
“My mum [Liesa Allcock, 45] had four C-sections so she’d never had a contraction either.
“I said to the ambulance woman ‘I’m not sure, this could be a poo. But I’m in a lot of pain’.”
The medical team arrived at 5.05am and found Billie on her bathroom floor with her worried mum, before little baby Arete arrived at 5.10am.
Billie said: “The woman ran up the stairs and said ‘if you give one push, the baby’s going to be here’. She gave me gas and air after I gave birth as my body was in shock, I was shaking.
“Because of how quickly I went into labour, my waters didn’t break. My body wasn’t prepared.
“The paramedic just pulled the sac away from her. Apparently, it’s quite lucky to have a baby on their due date and still in their sac.
“The first thing Josh said was ‘I think I need to get a coffee’. I think he was in so much shock.
“He was like ‘oh my god, what has just happened in my bathroom. I’ve been awake 10 minutes’.”
