A yet-to-be-identified soldier reportedly flogged a student of Command Secondary School, Enugu, to death for allegedly keeping his hair.
The student who was in senior secondary one (SS 1) and identified as Eneh Chinemerem was beaten on the head for not having a haircut before school day.
According to SaharaReporters, sources said that the boy’s head started swelling, causing the parents to move him from one hospital to another until his untimely death. The mother of the deceased, Eneh Nididiamaka, broke the news in a Facebook post with pictures of the deceased showing a swollen eye and head before his demise.
She wrote; “It is still very hard to believe that you are gone my son but one thing I know is that God will surely fight for us, rest in peace my son. Army man flogged my son in school to death in command sec, sch enugu. Rip my first fruit in life.”
