President Muhammadu Buhari has vowed that justice will be done, no matter who is involved in the killing of Sylvester Oromoni, student of Dowen College, Lagos.
The president made the vow in a statement issued on Wednesday by his media aide, Mallam Garba Shehu.
Shehu quoted the president as ordering the police to continue the ongoing investigation until they got to the root of the matter in order for the law to take its course, assuring that justice will be done, no matter who is involved.
“I share the anger and grief up and down the country following this incident. On behalf of my family and I, and the government of the federation, I convey our heartfelt condolences to the Oromoni family, the government and people of Lagos State and give the firm assurance that this incident will be thoroughly investigated and the appropriate punishment meted out to all those who are culpable,” he said.
The president, expressing his condemnation of the killing, described Sylvester Oromoni as a bright youngsters doing excellently in school, bringing joy to the family.
He said if his killing truly resulted from bullying or cultism, it must act as a trigger leading to a permanent solution to the recurring problem.
