Chrisland: “No parent deserves this, School Should Reveals The Truth Behind The Sudden Death” – Actress Mercy Johnson reacts
Popular Nollywood star Mercy Johnson has responded to the unfortunate passing of Whitney Adeniran, 12, a pupil at Chrisland International School in Opebi, Lagos.
The 12-year-old passed away last Thursday at Agege Stadium during a school interhouse sporting event.
The deceased, according to the school, collapsed in “public view” and was taken for emergency care to the closest hospital.
Her grieving parents, however, charged the administration of the school with a possible cover-up.
Whitney’s mother, Mrs. Blessing Adeniran, who cried out online, demanding answers to what happened to her daughter in a heartbreaking video, questioned how a healthy teenager with no medical condition could have suffered a cardiac arrest, as the school alleged.
“How does a 12-year-old have a cardiac arrest? No pre-existing heart condition, no pre-existing medical condition. She was hale and hearty, she was not sick in any form. Even if she will die from cardiac arrest why should one arrest kill a healthy teenager? Let me state this, that by the time I got there, my daughter’s lips and tongue had already turned black.” The mother said in part.
Reacting, actress Mercy Johnson, whose children also attend Chrisland School, revealed that she has spoken to the management to heed the cry of Whitney’s mother and release the details of what happened to her daughter.
Mercy Johnson, in a post on her Instagram page, said that she is responding to the cries of a mother going through the worst pain ever, who wants to know how her child died suddenly.
While sending her condolence to the deceased’s parents, she stated that no parent deserves this.
“I’m responding to the cries of a mother going through the worst pain ever. A mother who wants to know how her child died so suddenly @bam.babycity. No parent deserves this, no one. Since I saw this heartbreaking video this morning, I’ve called to plead with the school @chrislandinsta to do as Whitney’s mum has cried for and release the full details of what happened to her daughter. We are all waiting.” She wrote.
