Recall that a video clip revealing the dehumanization of a student in uniform at the Federal Government College, Enugu, has been attracting condemnation from Nigerians.
The now viral video emerged at the weekend showing a supposed junior student sprawling on the floor while some senior students repeatedly used their waist belt to flog him.
