The Niger State Government has responded to the viral school debate video in which a pupil, while wishing all politicians dead, also mentioned the name of former Lagos State Governor and presidential candidate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
The government has disowned the pupil, expressing its disapproval of the student’s comments and behavior.
The statement from the Niger State Ministry for Basic and Secondary Education, which was made available to newsmen, condemned the use of vulgar and violent language in the video.
The Ministry emphasized that the student’s behavior was unacceptable and went against the values, respect, and decorum that should be upheld in educational settings.

“The disturbing content of the video, was evident that the student was coached to use violence and vulgar language in his presentation.
“Such behavior is not only unacceptable by the Ministry, but also goes against the values, respect and decorum that should be upheld in an educational settings,” it said.
