A tragic event at Lunjika Seventh Day Adventist School has sent shockwaves through the local community, leaving parents devastated and angry. 

A student who had been feeling unwell died on the way to the hospital, and many believe the school’s failure to respond swiftly to the medical emergency played a role in the tragedy. 

This heartbreaking incident has reignited longstanding concerns about the school’s lack of proper health and safety measures.

For months, parents had voiced worries about the school’s preparedness for emergencies, noticing the absence of clear health protocols and a lack of proper medical attention. 

Despite these warnings, the school did not take sufficient action, and when the student’s condition worsened, it became clear that the school was ill-prepared to handle such a crisis.

In the wake of the student’s death, many parents removed their children from the school, demanding better safety and health protocols. The community grew increasingly upset, with some accusing the school of negligence. 

The delay in seeking proper medical help sparked outrage, as parents felt the school’s response was far too slow.

Outraged and seeking change, parents began meeting with school leaders, urging them to implement stronger health policies, provide better staff training, and be more transparent about the school’s safety practices. 

However, despite the school’s promises to improve, many parents felt betrayed and were reluctant to trust the institution with their children’s safety any longer.

The tragedy has left a lasting impact on the community, with calls for greater accountability from the school and the Seventh Day Adventist Church Malawi Union. 

Some parents are even demanding the removal of the entire school administration, citing what they call a failure of leadership and a lack of competence in safeguarding the well-being of the students. 

The incident has sparked a broader debate about whether schools are doing enough to protect their students in emergencies.
