Panic among Ondo varsity students over missing colleagues

Published

on

The student community of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko, Ondo State, has been thrown into a state of panic following the mysterious disappearance of two of their colleagues.

The whereabouts of the students, Andrel Okah of the Department of History and International Studies, and John Abba of the Department of Economics, who were last seen two weeks ago, have caused fear and despair among their coursemates.

Both students are in 200-level, and according to close friends, all efforts to reach them via their phones have been unsuccessful. This has raised particular concern, as they are known for their regular attendance at classes and academic activities.

According to a fellow student, who identified himself as Ajibola, the two students have not been seen on campus for the past two weeks, behaviour he described as highly unusual, hence the growing anxiety.

He said, “We don’t even know if it is a case of kidnapping or something else. The two of them are very close, though. But efforts to reach them through their phones have repeatedly failed. Their sudden disappearance is giving us concerns. The students’ community is already worried and also agitated.”

Expressing frustration over what he described as a lack of urgency from the relevant authorities, Ajibola noted that, although the matter had been reported to both the university management and the police, no concrete action had yet been taken.

When contacted, the spokesperson for the institution, Mr Victor Akinpelumi, stated that the police had already been informed of the development by the university.

Similarly, the spokesperson for the state police command, Olayinka Ayanlade, confirmed that the matter had been reported and was under investigation.
