CITIZENS COMPASS—A student of the Kwara State College of Health Technology, Mojisola Awesu, was found dead at a refuse dump in the Aleniboro area of Ilorin, Kwara State capital.

The incident occurred after she was said to have acted as a ‘girlfriend’ to another student for a fee of N15,000.

Spokesperson, Kwara State Police Command, DSP Toun Ejire-Adeyemi, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.

According to the Spokesperson, a resident of the community had reported that some labourers found a body at the refuse dump on August 12, which prompted police operatives to visit the scene and recover the body which was identified as Awesu Mojisola.

The statement said that, “on August 13, one Miss Blessing made the report of a missing person who happened to be her roommate.

“According to the report, Miss Mojisola received a phone call on August 9, from Miss Timileyin, who informed her about an event organised by students of Summit University and Al-Hikmah University in Ilorin.

“Miss Timileyin introduced Mojisola to one Mr. Adebayo Happiness, a student of Summit University, who allegedly invited her to the night party under the pretence of having her act as his girlfriend for a fee of N15,000.00.

“Upon her arrival in Ilorin, Miss Mojisola informed her roommate that she felt uncomfortable in the hotel where she was lodged by Adebayo Happiness and noted that there was no party at the said location.

“Shortly after this communication, her phone was switched off and all subsequent efforts by Miss Blessing to reach her were unsuccessful.”

The Police spokesperson added that some suspects have been arrested in connection with the incident and are currently undergoing investigation.
