In a statement issued by one Mutairu Kashamu, the family confirmed that Michael Kashamu is indeed the son of the late Senator Buruji Kashamu who represented Ogun East in the 8th National Assembly.

The family of Michael Adewale Kashamu, one of the students who allegedly tortured the late 12-year-old pupil of Dowen College, Sylvester Oromoni. Jnr, has called for calm.However, the family noted that despite the late Sylvester's claims, the ongoing cyber-bullying and name-calling will not help solve the pending issue as it pledged to cooperate with the government during the investigation.

The family stated that it has conducted a private enquiry and “carefully questioned” Michael about his involvement. According to the family, their son had truly served as a school father of Sylvester during the last session but had been moved to a different floor in the boarding house in the new session, which affected their closeness.

The sensitive of this case will be tailored to deeper root, the elite kids couldn't have been finger out in this mess if influence from home is paramount.

Justice will be served! This won’t be swept under carpet

Sahara Reporters: The title of this story is deceptive. It should have been: The Kashamu family confirms their son not involved in the death of the bullied boy at Bowen!! This is why people don't trust your stories.

Think that boy should be call 'babatunde esho Jinadu' Buruji kashamu Jr....It runs in the family blood

William the Shakespeare AS Jon Einar during the day

Fuck the political influence tittle

So where is the 'boy' now? In a sane country, he should be in custody now.

Condolences of this nature is not for the departed but for the living who lives the life of a manipulator who could not cheat on death when the time is up.

All I know for one is 'what goes around comes around'. There's always a nemesis it might not be now nor not on them, but future revenge. The sin of fathers will be visited on children from first generation to there third generation. If no justices for him now.

When you don't have time to train your children the right way to go, believe it, you'll have time to weep later. Money won't stop the tears.

'Michael saw him late November limping & assumed he hurt himself playing football' A former schoolfather? Was same Michael not suspended earlier for bullying him? Kashamu may've escaped his drug case in USA, the spirits of those he destroyed still remain in his cursed family.

Little murderers

Did I hear d boy dad was a drug lord before? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

You said the family should wait for proper investigation, but you are jumping to conclusion already. how do you know its the medications the parent gave him that caused his death. something is fishing.

2)...And in doing that, help the bereaved family get closure on the matter.

1) Unfortunately, we come from a country that thrives in the pervasion of Justice especially when high profile personalities are involved. Let's keep our fingers crossed and allow all the agencies involved to do the due diligence and ensure they get to the root of this case.

Elites matters, persons who attended public school know how teachers would deal with you for simple offence talking about killing somebody's son.

So Michael will just tell you that he was involved? And even if he told you that he was involved, you will issue a statement informing us that he was involved? Funny!

'until the Police and the Lagos State government have completed their independent investigations and established the truth' Is it the police we know or the Lagos state government led by Sanwo'ku?

Directly involved in the murder of this boy should face the full consequences of their actions or inactions. For what they did and for what they failed to do.

Who ever drafted this smokescreen on behalf the family of Kashamu tried his/her best. But unfortunately he or she can not and will never fool any decerning mind. My pray is that there shouldn't be any cover up in this case. The school management and all those remotely or

The fact that they testified to the bullying of Sylvester confirmed the innocent boy was beaten to death. He confirmed he saw him limping and also helped him severally from bullying! Michael you have questions to answer! You know more than what you are saying…

Lol why am I not surprised?🙃🙃

Come to think of this.his sisters was the cause of all this, he was suffering for his sisters lack of attention towards them, so they made him suffer anytime his sister refuse to give them the attention they are finding, mehn the sisters be need to tell if thy were disturbing her

We careless about this. All we want is justice for Sylvester

SavedOneClick

Autopsy don't lie, thank God burial has not been done

You were right queenolabis

The only question i have to ask is, why did they pick their son that early if he was just a school father who knew nothing?

Ohiodongaldo Like father like son

nwamgbeke Y'all keep protecting this evil spirits, these children will kill again and I pray their next victims are their parents and relatives that kept quiet and tried to cover this up

Super story! Justice must be served, we are watching and waiting.

Like father, like son...

In Nigeria legal play book 📖: If the perpetrators are rich and connected then the case is dead on arrival. 👉Tomorrow one of this bastards will become a politician in this hell hole called Nigeria. It's a cycle.....NO CHANGE.

Like father like son

Buruji Kashama was a member of the Nigerian Senate..The National Asembly and its members,even the Senator representing where Late Sylvester comes from won't ask for expedited justice because they'll want to show solidarity to their late colleague and his family..Shame

God the Almighty judge will do the needful. I trust God to act on behalf of the family of late Sylvester. His killers and those covering up for them will not go unpunished in this life or the after life

The school management who says that the boy was wounded playing football should be brought to court and jailed for the cover up.

It's really fucked, but quite unfortunate that the young innocent lad lost his life as a result of the bully. I hope we get to the root of the matter so justice can be served hot as expected

Life imprisonment asap

What a useless family, why not leave the interrogation for the police to do. 'Owu baba gbon.......

I pray this situation doesn't befall me because I will go spiritual on all culpable in my child's life..Like kogi juju priests Will receive me as visitor.. I can't stop the tears 😭. RIP sly

Life imprisonment for him

Just like that? They are still saying its an injury sustained from playing foot ball and that Sylvester parents said the bruises on his lips were from medications given to him ? This kashamu's family and whosoever said this must be mad ! Michael Kashamu and family must be mad !

jerry_emy What do you expect from a family of drug peddlers? Tey can run away from justice, te cannot run away from God. And believe me alot of parents must have warned their kids not to say what they know, so the don't get implicated. I pray the good lord vindicates this boy's death

God has started to punish your family already. Investigation keep you dia.

Fathers shall not be put to death because of their children sins , nor shall children be put to death because of their fathers. Each one shall be put to death for his own sin. A chicken will never give birth to an eagle !

An apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

The evil they do lives in their children

Kashamu family don't want us to rush to conclusions but Kashamu family has reached their own conclusions. Here is my conclusion : the small Kashamu is a big beast.

Hmmm. Na wa o

Snake must surely born long things.

Leader will always be blamed. Of course I will blame them. Leaders, what r ur input in this society. Ur children are fast learning from ur attitude. Change!!!

How I wish the boy is still alive.... But as it is, most especially in Nigeria, this case will be buried from what I am seeing. Its really sad but everyday for the thief, one day for the owner. Those who kill that boy will never have peace of mind.

Now, it has come to pass, the son of a drug dealer has become a murderer.

They should do autopsy for the dead and confirm the cause of the death.

Oh well what do y’all expect from a drug dealer father?

He was not properly brought up. Where is his fear of God, where his is sense of morality. Sad.

Like father, like son

After denying it for 3 days 🙄 Anyways soon, Abacha and elrufai sons will contest for top political positions and the eleribu Nigerians will still vote for them. Failed Nation 🌚

Like father like son.... senator Buruji Kashamu remained a fugitive until his death

Already done deir CIA that Sylvester died of medical reaction or complications. Wow this raises suspicion that the son actually might be the ring leader. D son n others confir3med it was an injury sustained from football hmmm. Well

Wetin I just read 😤

Why is there no CCTV in this school. Big shame

Snake no fit born dove.

Anyone who try to twist the story or manipulation the law in defence of those boys will also be k!lled by the boys before k!IIing themselves. Period!

Cat can't give birth to rabbit nah

Justice will not prevail on this case since they are big power players……

Blood and DNA. 🙅 Those 2 are strong.....💪

I don't know why I can't bring myself to read it till the end...'the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it?'

School Father my foot 🦶 That's the best way for them to Run and Hide Nonsense Ingredients

Rubbish you must face Justice .

ayemojubar This is the face of evil😠😡👺👹👿😈

Owu baba gan lomo raan. That should be a surprise, if he is truly there ooo, then there is one more attitude inherited that is yet to be displayed, 'Fraud'

So this nonsense have been going on since and the useless school authority no do anything...

nikscletus212 Very foolish and criminal minded family.

If late Kashamu’s son was late Sylvester’s school father, how come Slyvester’s constant bullying? Why the cheap fallout because of change in dorm? I read late Slyvester was put in another dorm cos of the bullying. The Kashamu’s are now writing their son was the one changed.

His father is a notorious drug dealer, what do you expect?

'we wish to appeal to all and sundry to hold their horses' The damned audacity!! Really eh una never see something..like the so called son would admit it

I hope I will see him in court ?

I think the parent of all the kids involved should be detained

What's our take on karma?

Have they turned into CIA, FBI or the CID, or what, why not allow the Police carry out a proper investigation,this statement won't change anything.

Who were those claiming he wasn't the one yesterday claiming they schooled together. This Nigeria won't be better in the next 50 years too many evil people in it, who can do anything for money.

Did they just say “Wait for Police Investigation “. I hope they are not talking about NigeriaPolice 🤣😂🤣😂.

DO THE RIGHT THING AND TURN IN HIM..

I'm not surprised as Yoruba elders have a saying that 'Omo Ajanaku ki ya ara Omo ti Eya babi,Eya ni ojo'

You're talking nonsense, if the students mentioned his involvement then he's involved no white washing story will change the truth.

its going to be interesting

Like father like son

All I see is the handiwork of a street lawyer..., he has claimed to be school father last session, very interesting matter.

Despite Lagos Government’s Closure Order Over Pupil’s Death, Dowen College Continues Classes Online | Sahara ReportersThis is despite the Lagos State Government’s order of indefinite closure of the school following the death of 12-year-old Sylvester Oromoni (Jnr), a pupil allegedly beaten by colleagues for refusing to join a cult. Online classes? Or more like preparing them for what to say when they’re asked about their school? 🙄 The school is useless and callous. They will learn the power of social media in a hard way. Most of the private schools in Nigeria are owned by the politicians who stole our monies. They continue to exploit through the schools. When issues like this happens, it is difficult to have justice. This schools should be shut down for life. Parents of those guys must be jailed
