Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The House of Representatives has resolved to investigate the cause of the death of a four year-old pupil, Miguel Ovoke, of Brickhall School, Abuja.<\/p>\n

The House, therefore resolved to constitute a special Ad-hoc Committee to investigate the circumstances leading to the untimely death of the young Ovoke within four weeks and report back for further legislative action.<\/p>\n

The resolution of the House followed the adoption of a motion moved at plenary on Wednesday by Hon. Kelechi Nwogu.<\/p>\n

Moving the motion, Nwogu recalled that Ovoke was dropped in the school by his mother on the 24th of April, 2024.<\/p>\n

He regretted that the young innocent child was reported dead under suspicious circumstances, which the school was unable to explain<\/p>\n

Nwogu expressed worry that the parents of the deceased boy alleged a coverup by the school management in collaboration with the Nigerian Police.<\/p>\n

He expressed concern about the traumatic effects of the sudden death of young Ovoke on the family and other classmates.<\/p>\n

The lawmaker further expressed worry about the negative image that the act would leave on the country in the comity of nations if such was not addressed.<\/p>\n
