Scores of students have been hospitalised after suspected gas leakage hits school in Ogun State.
The incident which occurred in the early hours of Friday at the Anglican Girls Grammar School, AGGS Ijebu Ode, reportedly sent panic across the school with some of the students fainting after inhaling the leaked gas while several others fled the school.
This is coming barely three months after similar incident was reported in the same town.
Several students also fainted following a reported gas leakage, prompting emergency response and a visit by the Commissioner for Environment, Ola Oresanya, and other officials of the ministry.
The latest development, which had since raised fresh concerns over air quality and safety standards across the area, had left fresh set of students hospitalised.
Video shared on X showed visibly disturbed parents and guardians of the affected students loitering around the General Hospital where the students were admitted.
Some of the students who fled from the school after the leakage were also seen at the hospital waiting for their colleagues.
