A 21-year-old female student of the Kwara State College of Health Technology, Mojisola Awesu, has been found dead.

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

While arriving in Ilorin, Miss Mojisola informed Miss Blessing, her roommate of feeling uncomfortable in the hotel she was lodged by Adebayo Happiness, and also went ahead to say that there was no party at the said location.
