A 15-year-old SS2 student at Air Force Comprehensive School in Kaduna, Blaize Felix, has reportedly lost his life after he was allegedly electrocuted to death by his colleagues.
Felix, who until his demise was the assistant head boy of the school, was described as a “super intelligent” student who faced constant bullying by his colleagues.
The news of his demise was announced by broadcaster Inya Ode on her Facebook page.
According to her, Felix, who openly condemned bullying, was orphaned when he was 4 years old in 2013, and he and his twin brothers have been in their aunt and uncle’s care since then.
She mentioned that the student was electrocuted by two SS3 boys for “no just course.”
She said, “The last few days have been very difficult and painful for our church family (Lux Terra Chaplaincy, Abuja). We lost one of our church sons on Wednesday, June 19.
“Blaize (Blaise) Felix was a super intelligent and brave 15-year-old SS2 student at Air Force Comprehensive School in Kaduna. He was the assistant head boy.
“He was orphaned when he was 4 years old in 2013, and he and his twin brothers have been in their aunt and uncle’s care since then.
“One would think he had crossed the stage of bullying, but no. This son of ours was electrocuted to death by two SS3 boys for no just cause. These young men, who were already on their way out of school, snuffed the life out of Blaize for reasons best known to them.
“See, stop bullying. This happened to us.”
She also disclosed that the school authorities have begun an investigation into the the murder of the student.
“Well, the Air Force says they are investigating, so we await the reports on this. But we all know that if this were a private school, it would have been shut down the day it happened.
“The picture below was from the last time Blaize was home, during the Easter break. He answered a question on Good Shepherd Sunday (April 21, 2024) about leadership.
“As the assistant head boy, that day he made a commitment to never bully his juniors. Yet, the same thing he fought against took his life,” she said.
“Well, God knows best, and, difficult as it is, we completely surrender to His perfect will.
“May his amazingly phenomenal soul rest in God’s perfect peace, and may all left behind to mourn him find strength and comfort in the hope of the resurrection, we ask through Christ our Lord, Amen.
“All will be well. Through the love of God, our saviour, all will be well,” she added.
