Father of a late student of Chrisland Schools, Ikeja, Michael Adeniran, has told an Ikeja High Court that his daughter died in a stadium during the school’s inter-house sports.
Adeniran testified in Court on Monday.
Adeniran told the court that he was informed by the school’s nurse that his daughter, aged 12, was already dead in the stadium before she was taken to a hospital.
Adeniran listed the drugs as Nitrazepam and Amitriptyline.
When asked if he was informed by the Agege Gentral Hospital and Diagnostic Ltd. that his daughter died of cardiac arrest, the witness said that he was informed that she died of cardiac arrest.
The witness, however, told the court that he could not remember if the school’s nurse mentioned anything about administering oxygen or cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the deceased.
“The nurse said she tried all she could but my daughter had already died before being taken out of the stadium.
“She said her eyes had already dilated, but she could not pronounce her dead because she was not a doctor,” he said.
Adeniran had testified before the court on May 25, 2023.
Justice Oyindamola Ogala adjourned the case until January 24 for continuation of cross-examination of Adeniran.
