David Adeleke reacted on Sunday through the social media platform X, describing the behaviour captured in the viral footage as shocking and unacceptable.

“Fuckin animals… so disgusting,” David Adeleke wrote while responding to the clip that has triggered intense public outrage online.

The video shows two male students repeatedly attacking a fellow student who had already fallen to the ground.

At one stage, one of the attackers drags the victim by his school uniform and stomps on the student’s chest and head as the boy cries out in pain.

A third student recording the incident can be heard pleading with the attackers to stop the assault.

The disturbing and graphic footage quickly sparked widespread condemnation on social media, prompting swift action from the management of Igbinedion Secondary School.

School authorities subsequently expelled the students involved in the bullying incident, while the student who recorded the video was suspended.

The Edo State Police Command confirmed the disciplinary measures in a statement released following the public outcry.

Police spokesperson Eno Ikioyedem said the Commissioner of Police, Monday Agbonika, had directed the Divisional Police Officer in the area to conduct a full investigation into the incident.

Eno Ikioyedem added that the police command strongly rejects any form of bullying, violence, or intimidation within schools.

“The Edo State Police Command strongly condemns acts of bullying, violence, or intimidation among students, and anyone found culpable will face the full weight of the law,” the statement said.
