We’re sorry’, #Chrisland breaks silence on Whitney’s autopsy report

The Management of Chrisland School has finally apologised for its silence over the death of Whitney Adeniran, who died from asphyxia and electrocution.

The school management also refuted the claim making the rounds that Chrisland School intends to exhume the body of its late student.

The school management in a statement on Sunday said it is aware of the developments around the autopsy report on the unfortunate death of one of its students, Whitney Adeniran, and expressed its deepest regret to the school and the media for being silent out of shock and moral rectitude.

“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.

the Nigeria Media, another critical stakeholder, in case we have sent unbearably quiet signals. We have been quiet because this was 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,” the school said.
