No fewer than three lives were lost in a fatal road accident that occurred at the entrance of Ilupeju, a neighboring community of the Federal University Oye Ekiti (FUOYE), in Ekiti State.
The accident, which involved a trailer and a motorbike, reportedly claimed the lives of two FUOYE students and a bike man.
The students are reportedly siblings from the same parents.
According to an X (formerly Twitter) user @Idris_Aloma, who claimed to be a student of FUOYE, he disclosed the identity of one of the students as ‘Passion.’
He wrote, “This happened right in my school, Federal University Oye Ekiti. Passion unisex salon died along with her junior sister in a ghastly accident. May their souls rest in perfect peace.”
This is coming barely a week after the management of FUOYE announced the death of the then-missing year-two nursing student of the institution, Miss Modupe Deborah Atanda, who was gruesomely killed and buried in a shallow grave inside the school.
More details to come later.
