This is Keren-Happuch Aondodoo Akpagher, a 14 year-old student of Premiere Academy, Lugbe, Abuja who died of sepsis earlier this year.

A used condom was found inside her. The school has successfully stonewalled and prevented all information from emerging. I know because I tried.

Her mom is on my WhatsApp and I lose the will to live everytime she puts up a story, because it's always about her daughter.

This is her current profile picture where she is pleading with fellow parents and other students to speak up. So far, nothing.

If you're wondering why this school has been able to keep this scandal contained, a peek behind the curtain at who owns it provides an answer.

Akinsola Akinfemiwa is the former CEO of Skye Bank, current Chairman of @heritagebankplc and a board member of @TCN_NIGERIA.

This is what Nigeria is in 2021.

A school that costs N750,000+ per term has had a 14 year-old female boarding student raped on its premises, leading to her excruciatingly painful death by sepsis.

But because it is linked to power, her mom is left to fight alone.

NB: While doing everything to frustrate the investigation and stop journalists from accessing information, Premiere Academy went and hired @pr_redline, which is the Public Relations arm of the Marketing giant @CSPGrey to distort the public story with sponsored articles.

The FCT Police Command is now holding on to the autopsy report and playing games with it.

The usual thing the Nigeria Police Force does when it is being paid by a powerful entity such as Mr. Bank Chairman above, to bungle a case that would embarrass him.
