Lagos Elite School Faces Racism Row Over Alleged Bullying of Nigerian-Chinese Student

Charterhouse, an elite school in Lagos, is embroiled in a racism controversy as Sizhen Chen accuses the school of neglecting to safeguard her Nigerian-Chinese daughter from racist bullying incidents. Allegations include racial slurs, bullying, and a hostile environment.

Chen's lawyer, Festus Ogun, claims the school failed to intervene and protect the child. Charterhouse refutes the accusations, stating that the incidents were mutual provocations and not targeted bullying.

The school demands a retraction and apology from Chen, threatening legal action if she fails to comply. The situation highlights issues of racism, child protection, and accountability in educational institutions.
