As parents plead, the Lagos government reopens Chrisland School for terminal classes

The Lagos State government has announced the reopening of the Chrisland High School Opebi branch for physical education in preparation for the upcoming terminal examinations. This comes just hours after the school's Parents Teachers Association asked the state government to stop the school's continuous closure for the sake of over 500 students who are "punished." Remember that the state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, ordered the school to be closed in order to conduct a proper investigation into the death of a 12-year-old student, Whitney Adeniran. Adeniran died at the Agege Stadium during the school's inter-house sports event, where she reportedly slumped and was rushed to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
