The Principal of Dowen College, Lagos, Mrs. Adebisi Layiwola, broke down in tears as she testified about the death of Sylvester Oromoni Jnr. The coroner, Mr. Mikhail Kadiri, had to stand down proceedings for 10 minutes to enable the principal to pull herself together. Falana also asked Layiwola if she was aware that a parent came to Maroko Police Station to complain that her son was being bullied.
She also testified that she did not see the deceased until Nov. 23, 2021, when he was admitted to the sickbay with medical personnel treating him. The coroner adjourned proceedings until March 7 for a continuation of the hearing. Following Layiwola's evidence, counsel for Dowen College, Mr. Anthony Kpokpo, informed the court that the principal was the last witness from the school.
