The Lagos State Government has shut down all Chrisland Schools in Lagos State indefinitely.
This followed a controversy generated over an “immoral act” engaged in by students of the school during a trip to Dubai.
The shutdown notice was contained in a press statement on Monday.
The PUNCH had reported that pupils from the elite private school located in Victoria Garden City had embarked on a trip to Dubai to participate in the World School Games between March 10 and 13, 2022 when the incident happened.
Following the incident, the school authorities suspended the student indefinitely, stating that she was “a major actor” in an “immoral act”.
But the mother of the student claimed that her daughter was drugged and raped by some male students of the school.
The government, in the statement, noted that an investigation into the matter had begun.
The statement read, “The attention of the Lagos State Government has been drawn to the alleged sexual violence case involving students of Chrisland Schools which occurred in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
