The General Overseer of Winners Chapel, Bishop David
Oyedepo has been asked to pay N2 billion within 14 days as general damages or
face legal action, for the death of three-year-old Imienfan Omokaro who got
drowned at Kingdom Heritage Model School operated by Winners Chapel in Benin.
A letter written by Omokaro’s Counsel, Prince Peter
E. Uwadiae-Igbinigie and, dated November 28, 2012 and made available to
journalists in Benin, explained that the amount was “for the callous and
senseless killing of our client’s daughter, Miss Imienfan Omokaro.”
Besides, Mr. Omokaro’s lawyers want Kingdom Heritage
Model School to tender unreserved apology in three national newspapers, warning
that if the demands were not met within 14 days, “we have the irrevocable
instructions of our client to commence legal action against the school (Kingdom
Heritage Model School) and Church (Winners Chapel) without any further
correspondence from this Chambers.”
Imienfan Omokaro, a KG I pupil of Kingdom Heritage
Model School, was said to have drowned in a drum of water in a toilet in the
school on November 1, 2012.
Also, teachers of the school allegedly did not
inform her mother when she came to pick her from school on that fateful day
until late in the evening.
The school authorities and Winners Chapel had
reportedly kept the girl for more than an hour, praying for her before finally
taking her to Irowa Hospital in Benin, where she was confirmed dead.
The girl had died before being brought to hospital,
doctors said.
