Afrobeats superstar Davido has slammed a viral video showing a violent bullying incident at Igbinedion Secondary School in Edo State.
Reacting on X on Sunday, the singer expressed his disgust at the footage, which shows two male students assaulting a fellow student on the ground.
“F***ing Animals… so disgusting,” he wrote.
The video depicts one student dragging the victim by his uniform and stomping on his chest while he cries out in pain, as a third student filming the scene pleads with the attackers to stop.
The footage quickly sparked outrage online, prompting immediate action by the school authorities.
According to a statement from the Edo State Police Command, signed by the Police Public Relations Officer Eno Ikioedem, the students involved in the assault have been expelled, while the student who recorded the incident has been suspended.
The police added that the state Commissioner of Police, Monday Agbonika, directed the local Divisional Police Officer to carry out a detailed investigation.
“The Edo State Police Command totally condemns acts of bullying, violence, or intimidation among students, and anyone found culpable will be dealt with in accordance with the law,” the statement said.
Investigations are ongoing, and authorities assured the public that those responsible will be apprehended and prosecuted appropriately, taking their ages into account.
