Mrs. Adeniran said she decided to go where the students were all kept to check on her child, and when she got there, she was told by a male student that a certain Whitney fainted and had been rushed to the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whitney\u2019s mother said her daughter was not ill prior to the inter-house sports day and when she asked the doctor at the hospital the cause of her daughter\u2019s death, the doctor said it appears to be cardiac arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reacting to the incident, Chrisland School explained that about two weeks prior, Whitney had complained of ill health and chose not to participate in the school\u2019s march-past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a statement released, the school claimed Whitney died in \u201cpublic view and not under any hidden circumstances,\u201d adding that she was rushed to the nearest medical facility for first aid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Whitney\u2019s father claimed his daughter \u201cdied from naked wire from one cotton candy vendor machine after she touched it and she was electrocuted immediately she leaned on it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He claimed water was poured on her which killed her immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I have documented evidence that my child died from electrocution and it was not Cardiac arrest,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cShe was hale and hearty, she was not sick. And let me state it clearly, by the time I saw her corpse, her lips and tongue had already turned black,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The school&#8217;s management however, appealed to Whitney\u2019s parents to establish a scientific confirmation of the basic cause of her death before her burial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An autopsy has since been conducted and the results showed that Whitney died of electrocution, according to her mum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mrs Adeniran said her daughter was cut open in order to get the results. She said Whitney was menstruating before her death and her menstrual blood was also taken for tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"section-g57015d\" class=\"wp-block-gutentor-e6 section-g57015d gutentor-element gutentor-element-image\"><div class=\"gutentor-element-image-box\"><div class=\"gutentor-image-thumb\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"normal-image\" src=\"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/whitney-2.jpg\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"section-g1032a2\" class=\"wp-block-gutentor-e6 section-g1032a2 gutentor-element gutentor-element-image\"><div class=\"gutentor-element-image-box\"><div class=\"gutentor-image-thumb\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"normal-image\" src=\"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/whitney-3.jpg\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She called out Chrisland Schools for making her family go through the trauma due to the autopsy, when they could have just told them how their child died. She also said all those who \u201cinsulted, bullied and humiliated\u201d her with the narrative that her daughter was sick prior to her death, will be judged by God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The deceased was however buried yesterday amid tears from family and loved ones, as her mother couldn\u2019t hold back the floods of tears at the sight of her first child\u2019s coffin. Friends, family and classmates of Whitney had gathered for the sorrowful event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mrs Blessing Adeniran, the mother of a 12-year-old student of Chrisland High School in Ikeja, Lagos state, Desola Whitney Adeniran, who died while attending the school&#8217;s Interhouse sports held at the Agege Stadium on February 9, has stated that the result from the autopsy conducted on her daughter revealed she&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1839,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1838","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"gutentor_comment":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1838","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1838"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1838\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1842,"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1838\/revisions\/1842"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1839"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1838"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1838"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wepbi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1838"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
