THE Premiere Academy, Lugbe, Abuja, has denied reports that the autopsy result on the death of its 14-year-old SS1 student, Keren Akpagher, is out and indicted the school. Acting Principal of the school, Mr Chris Akinsowon, dismissed the claims while briefing newsmen on Thursday in Abuja, said the autopsy result was yet to be released as a team of pathologists, led by the Nigerian police, only commenced their enquiry on Wednesday. As an institution, the safety and security of our students are most paramount to us,” he said. He also raised the alarm that could be a smear campaign targeting the school following the high academic performance of its students year-in-year-out. He appealed to Nigerians to wait for the autopsy result and ongoing investigation being carried out under the purview of the Nigeria Police to ascertain the cause of Karen’s death.
