“The Daycare Menace: A Warning to Parents and School Owners Alike”

A harrowing incident has come to light at a daycare facility in Ago Palace, Okota, Lagos State, where an infant was allegedly mauled by an unidentified animal, resulting in severe lacerations. The child’s parents, who have chosen to remain anonymous, reached out to human rights advocate Harrison Uwamnishu, alleging that the school’s administration is attempting to conceal the truth and shift the blame onto a fellow student. However, medical examinations suggest that the wounds were inflicted by an animal, raising grave concerns about the safety and welfare of children in the school’s care.

The parents have filed a formal complaint with the authorities, but claim that the school’s owner is leveraging her wealth and influence to obstruct the investigation. Human rights advocate Harrison Uwamnishu has intervened on behalf of the family, dispatching a team to visit the child and ensure a thorough probe is conducted.

As a student affairs practitioner, our team has been summoned to investigate this matter, and the school will face appropriate consequences. This incident serves as a stark reminder to proprietresses and proprietors of educational institutions to prioritize the safety and well-being of their students. Such negligence and cover-ups will not be tolerated, and we urge all schools to take immediate action to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
