The lifeless body of a 200-level Accounting student, Adaeze, was discovered in her off-campus residence in Aluu, a community near the university. The circumstances surrounding her untimely demise remain shrouded in mystery, as the cause of her death is yet to be ascertained.
A Grim Déjà Vu
Adaeze’s tragic passing comes as a painful reminder of the recent, harrowing incident that shook UNIPORT. Justina Otuene, a 300-level Biochemistry student, lost her life under distressing circumstances. She was allegedly murdered by her ex-lover, Damian Okoligwe. Justina’s decomposing body was discovered at Okoligwe’s residence along NTA Road, Ozuoba, in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area.
Campus Authorities Respond
The Dean of Student Affairs at UNIPORT, Chima Wokocha, has confirmed the heart-wrenching discovery of Adaeze’s lifeless body. He revealed that concerned neighbors brought her remains to the Chief Lulu-Brigss Health Centre within the university. It is important to note that Adaeze did not pass away in the university hostel but in her off-campus residence in Aluu.
The police have also been involved in the investigation, alongside the university management. The parents of the late Adaeze have been notified of this tragic incident. While the circumstances surrounding her death are still uncertain, the discovery of a bottle containing a mysterious substance near her side suggests a possible link to her passing.
