The Lagos State Police Command has launched an investigation into a viral video showing students of Excel College, Ejigbo, drinking alcohol, smoking, and dancing at the school’s boys’ hostel in the state.
The command spokesperson, SP Abimbola Adebisi, made this known in a statement issued on Thursday, September 18, 2025.
Adebisi noted that the incident, which occurred in April but only surfaced online recently, had triggered widespread public outrage and condemnation.
Adebisi disclosed that the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Olohundare Jimoh, promptly ordered the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) to take over the investigation from the Ejigbo Police Division, where the principal of the school had earlier been invited.
She stated: “The principal of the school, who also serves as the proprietor, was invited for questioning and stated that the students seen in the viral video had already graduated and left the institution.
“Nonetheless, the school management is cooperating fully with investigators from the SCID to uncover the full circumstances surrounding the incident. All parties are working collaboratively to ensure that such disturbing and inappropriate behaviour does not recur within the school environment.

“Investigation is currently ongoing as mentioned above, and the outcome will be made public.”
The police spokesman quoted the Lagos State Police Command as calling on all secondary school authorities, both public and private, as well as parents and guardians, to take proactive steps in properly supervising and guiding their children and wards.
“They are urged to instill in them the importance of maintaining good behaviour, upholding moral values, and avoiding any form of misconduct or vices that may lead to public outrage or disruption of peace within academic institutions and the society at large,” Adebisi added.
Adebisi stressed that the command remains steadfast in ensuring peace, security, and orderliness across Lagos State.
