“At around 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 7, 2025, a report of a missing female student was intercepted on a students’ social media platform, and the Security Unit of the University started tracking the conversation around the incident.

“But around 6:10 p.m. on the same day, a group of Chemistry students, alongside a female student, Akinkuade Omobolanle Beatrice, from the Department of Agricultural Extension, identified as her roommate, reported a case of a missing student at the Security Unit of the University.

“Considering the complexity of the case and its limitations in terms of human and material resources, the Security Unit of the University then detailed three of its personnel to lead the students and report its preliminary findings to the Nigerian Police, who have enough manpower with sound professional and technical expertise to unravel the mystery surrounding the ‘disappearance’ of the student for further investigation.”
