TRAGIC: 14 Year Old Student Loses Eye After Being Slapped In School

A tragic story of how a 14-year-old Senior Secondary School II student of Bishop Phillips Academy, Ibadan, Oyo State, Miss Iyanuoluwa Dahunsi lost her eye after she was slapped by the secrtary to her school’s principal.

In a report by the Tribune, Dahunsi was allegedly slapped by one Mrs Funke Fashina, the secretary to the principal of the school on Thursday, January 29 after she had seen the student and her colleagues emerging from an unused room within the school and demanded to know what they were doing there.

Fashina reportedly slapped each of the girls while interrogating them.

Shortly after, Dahunsi’s right eye developed a problem that caused doctors at the University College Hospital, Ibadan(UCH) to recommend surgery. Iyanu said she can no longer see with her right eye.

Presently, the eyeball of the affected eye is almost dropping out of the sockets. Dahunsi’s explained to the Tribune the events that transpired the day she was slapped

“We saw our teacher from the window of the room so we wanted to step out to go and meet her. As we were about to leave the room, we saw the secretary to the Principal, Mrs Funke Fasina,”Dahunsi said.

“She asked us what we were doing in that room but before we could explain, she slapped us one after the other.

“By the time I got home, my left eye had turned red and painful. I told my mother what happened but she dismissed me, saying that I would not have been slapped if I didn’t do something wrong.”

Things went worse, forcing the mother to visit the school to complain.

“On Monday February 9, my mother followed me to school and the principal asked my mother to take me to the hospital.”

She sought medical attention from different hospitals before UCH recommended surgery.

“From there, we went to the University College Hospital, Ibadan and I was told that I would undergo surgery. We were told to bring N300,000 as deposit.”

Her parents could not afford the sum and filed a report with the police but the damage had already been done.

“Now I can no longer see with my right eye and I am going through a lot of pains,” the teenager said.

Her mother, Mrs Damilola Dahunsi, said she had even begged the secretary, believing that the eye problem was as a result of black magic.

Whaaaaat.......can u imagine!
