The young girl who was repeatedly slapped in the viral video from Lead British School Abuja has now spoken up to explain her story.

In the video, Namtira stated that initially she was surrounded by her colleagues near a store, and Maryam began hitting her until a teacher stepped in.

Following that, she was trapped in the school’s cafeteria, where Maryam persistently slapped her while others observed.

The story of Namtira and Maryam has created a significant uproar on social media, with many individuals demanding the expulsion of Maryam and the other students who were present.

Social activist Very Dark Man released a statement, advocating for the banning of all the students featured in the video.

He also highlighted the possibility that the incident may have originated from relationship issues among the students.

Additionally, he expressed his belief that the children captured in the video possessed explicit content on their phones.

Comedian Bovi also weighed in on the entire incident, praising Namtira for her composed behavior. This observation likely stemmed from the fact that despite enduring continuous slaps, Namtira remained remarkably calm.

Following the video’s circulation on the internet, Maryam, the attacker, publicly apologized for the entire situation.

A Nigerian writer expressed concern over the online exposure of the girls’ identities, despite the video clearly showing Namtira being bullied by Maryam and their faces being visible.

The Lead British School has been temporarily shut down for a thorough investigation into the matter by the Minister of Women Affairs.

The government acted promptly in response to the widespread attention the video received on social media. It is important to acknowledge that this is not the first instance of bullying in Nigerian secondary schools, as there have been numerous cases.

It is crucial to emphasize that this blog does not endorse or tolerate any form of bullying and vehemently denounces it.
