“Sylvester Oromoni: autopsy done. The result is being awaited. Corpse released to family for burial. Investigation ongoing.”

On December 2, Sylvester Oromoni’s death was revealed on social media.

Sylvester Oromoni is said to have died as a result of injuries incurred while being tortured by his colleagues in the college.

The school admin has since refuted the claim that the deceased was bullied by his senior colleagues.

Later, the state government issued an order for the indefinite closure of the school to allow a comprehensive investigation into the incident.
