Rosemary Oromoni, the mother of Sylvester Oromoni, a 12-year-old boy who died under controversial circumstances in 2021 after allegedly being bullied by classmates at Dowen College, has passed away. Sources indicate that Mrs. Oromoni had been in declining health since the tragic loss of her son, which left her grappling with profound grief.
In October 2023, Mrs. Oromoni made a poignant appearance at a coroner’s inquest aimed at investigating the events surrounding her son’s death. During the proceedings, she became visibly distraught, prompting the magistrate to call for a break to allow her to regain her composure. Following the hearing, the coroner controversially ruled that Sylvester’s death was due to natural causes, clearing Dowen College and the accused individuals of responsibility.
Now, nearly two years after her son’s passing, Rosemary Oromoni has succumbed to health complications attributed to the emotional toll of her loss, plunging her family into further mourning. Reports suggest she died on Monday, November 25, 2024.
A family source revealed to media outlets that “for over two years, Mrs. Oromoni endured an overwhelming burden of grief.” The source elaborated that despite receiving medical attention and support from family, she struggled with her health. Her grief reportedly manifested in difficulties with eating, sleeping, and engaging in daily activities.
