A JSS3 student was allegedly punched in the face by a senior student, resulting in a severe injury, after his tie accidentally touched the senior, despite apologizing.
The incident was shared in a viral post on X, formerly Twitter.
According to the post, the senior student of Bright Future Secondary School, located on Bajulaye Road, Shomolu, Lagos State, attacked the junior student over the minor incident.
Reports claim that after the assault, the school authorities hid the senior student from the victim's parents when they arrived at the school upon hearing about the incident.
It was also alleged that the school took no action, leaving the boy's parents to take him to the hospital for treatment.
As the post gained traction online, concerned individuals flooded the comment section to express their outrage.
