Ify Nwoye, public relations officer of the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA), told TheCable on Monday that they got a report about a week ago of how students were being rushed to the sickbay in their hundreds.

“We got there around 2pm yesterday. We alerted the principal and she went with us to the sickbay. When we got there, we saw some of the students being asked to go,” she said.

“One parent we met said this happened before, and when they called him, they said it was bacteria from water, from food. For months when the girl was brought back, she still had the same ailment. And we were asking the principal, ‘what is happening to the food, what is happening to the water?’

“At that point, we asked to see the record. To my utmost dismay, the principal said no. …We wanted to know how many students have been sent home. The nurse at the sickbay was threatened not to release any record to the PTA. ”

Nwoye also said things were not in place before the girls’ resumption. “We all knew there was no pre-resumption plan. The sewage was not packed, the grasses were not cut. No fumigation. And the consequences are what we are seeing now,” she said.
