A 400 level Psychology student of the Ondo
State owned Adekunle Ajasin University,
Akungba-Akoko and only son of his aged mother
, Olumuyiwa Ewarawon, has been murdered by a
suspected para-military organization operating
in the University.
The family in a petition to the Ondo State
Commissioner of Police, Mike Ogbodu, filed by
the counsel to the deceased’s father, Chief
Goodluck Ibitoye Ewarawon, alleged that
Olumuyiwa was attacked in his room at Shanghai
Hostel in Akungba, a private hostel outside the
school campus, by
the armed gang of seven boys under the guise
of being student cadet officers.
The counsel to the family, Olufemi Meduoye,
said:
“The armed assailants broke into Olumuyiwa’s
room while he was asleep and attacked him,
thereafter, brutalized, bruised and inflicted on
him fatal injuries from which he fell into coma.
The gang dumped Olumuyiwa’s body at the
General Hospital, Iwarooka Akoko before good
samaritans brought the incident to the attention
of the family three days later.”
They said they took the comatose body of
Olumuyiwa from the hospital to Trauma Centre
Ondo which instantly referred the case to
Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital,
Ile-Ife.
The family said the boy never came out of coma
and died later in the hospital.
While the University authorities responded by
condemning all para-military organizations in
the institution, it was reported late yesterday
that two of the suspects had been arrested.
Police Image Maker, Femi Joseph, who
confirmed the incident said that the suspect is
on the run and that detectives are on his trail.
He, however, assured that the suspect would
soon be apprehended and made to face the law
court.
However, the family of the deceased is insisting
that the culprits who allegedly killed their son
should be made to face the wrath of the law.
They urged the Commissioner of Police to use
his good office to ensure a full investigation of
the murder of Olumuyiwa by the suspected
Cadet Officers.
Also, they asked the authorities of the institution
to look at the activities of some armed gang
who operated under the guise of para-military
to attack members of the public.
The family also asked the security forces and the
state government to be alert to the activities of
such organizations with a view to protecting the
lives of innocent citizens.
