The President of the Ebonyi State University, EBSU, student’s union, Oshim Nwankwagu, has alleged that the final year student of the institution, Miss Favour Ugwuka, who was earlier said to have committed suicide was murdered by some persons yet to be identified.
Nwankwagu alleged that the deceased had been beaten in her hostel before her death.
The EBSU Students’ Union President made the allegations known to newsmen at the permanent site of the University in Abakaliki, the state Capital on Wednesday, May 29.
Late Ugwuka, of the English Literature Department, was last week alleged to have committed suicide over being failed repeatedly by a lecturer.
The motive behind her alleged suicide was debated after she lamented in a recorded voice note sent out through her phone that one of her departmental lecturers had deliberately failed her in one of the final year courses.
