Iyabo Ojo shared the logo of the school and asked them to tell the truth about the young girl's death.
According to Iyabo there are reports that the 12-year-old was electrocuted.
"@chrislandinsta You need to come out & tell Whitney's parents the truth about their daughter's death. The negligence from your school is appalling. There is a whatsapp audio circulating that she died as a result of electrocution. Can you confirm or deny? Did you not vet the vendors at your event to make sure they came with child proof equipment? You knew the child was dead before sending her to a 'health centre' and sent the mother on a wild goose chase to look for her child without accompanying her. The actual audacity to be irresponsible."
