The life of a 17-year-old student of Bowen University, Opeyemi Odusanya, has been cut short by some cult members in Lagos.
It was gathered that the undergraduate
was murdered for allegedly rejecting sexual advances from some youths in
the area and also for “being too proud.”
In the afternoon of February 3, 2014,
the deceased went to buy airtime for her telephone. As she was
returning, a group of cult members trailed and entered the house with
her.
“Opeyemi was alone at home when the guys
entered. They instructed her to turn on the generator so that if she
screamed, no one would hear.
“We believe that they wanted to rape the girl, but she must have put up a fierce struggle as the whole house was scattered.
“The guys subsequently stabbed her in the stomach several times and ripped out her intestines.
“After killing her, they took her phone
and the keys to her parents’ vehicle, a jeep, which was on the table.
They stole the jeep, which was parked in the compound, after killing the
girl.”
The sources told our correspondent that
after the guys had fled, they used Opeyemi’s telephone line to send a
text message to her mother, explaining why they killed the 17-year-old.
The text message, which was typed in
English and Yoruba languages, and made available to our correspondent,
read, “Your child has been proud. We have been toasting her, but she has refused to accept. We have killed her to teach a lesson. We have also driven your car away.
“If you want your car back, come to
Lakas Hotel or Cele Bus Stop around Mile 2 to pick it up. If we see
policemen around, we will kill everybody.”
