In Ondo State, a 20-year-old female was killed by unidentified individuals.
The deceased, Ebunoluwa Osatuyi, was brutally murdered in her father’s house on the Okuta Elerinla axis of Akure, the state capital, while attempting to gain admission to the university.
Ebunoluwa was assassinated over the weekend after returning from a coaching center where she had gone for tutorials in preparation for the upcoming Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, or UTME.
The dead was alleged to have been killed after she encountered several burglars at her father’s home who had broken in through the windows.
During the attack, the assailants are claimed to have plundered the entire house.
After going home in the evening, Ebunoluwa’s mother, Bosede Osatuyi, discovered her lifeless body in a pool of blood.
An axe and a pestle, which were used to chop her daughter to death, were left in the living room, according to the distressed mother.
“When my husband and I entered the sitting room, we saw our daughter on the floor with her two hands tied with rope. We discovered the axe and pestle with a bloodstain on the chair, as well as a rope strung from the ceiling fan, where she was bleeding profusely.
“We swiftly brought her to the hospital where she was proven dead before we went to the police station to complain,” she said, while pleading with the state government and security services to discover her daughter’s killers and bring them to justice.
The state’s Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Funmilayo Odunlami, confirmed the occurrence and said that an inquiry had begun as a result of it.
“The parents are not suspecting anyone,” the PPRO added, “but we have begun an investigation into the case.”
