LOKOJA—A lecturer with Kogi State University,
KSU, Anyigba, Associate Professor Justice
Olurotimi Otitolaye, has been reported killed by
cult members in the institution.
Vanguard gathered that Professor Otitolaye, who
had been championing war against examination
malpractice in the institution, was abducted
around Stadium Road, near the campus on Friday
night, on his way to a supermarket.
His bullet-riddled body was found in the early of
hours of Sunday at Ejule, which is about 8
kilometres away from the school.
The cultists were said to have fired sporadic
shots into the air to scare away people living
around the area before taking the lecturer to an
unknown destination.
The murdered lecturer, simply called Otis, was a
renowned agriculturist, who was a former pre-
degree director and a lecturer in Faculty of
Agriculture in the Department of Agric
Economics and Extension at the university.
Otis, who was said to be a jovial, nice and well-
respected person, also held a chieftaincy title
from his home town, Kabba, headquarters of
Kabba/Bunu Local Government Area of the state.
The body of the lecturer has been deposited at
the university teaching hospital.
Some lecturers and students expressed shock
over the incident, and decried the incessant
killings in the institution.
They called on the management to take urgent
steps to address the ugly trend.
When contacted, KSU Chairman of Academic Staff
Union of Universities, ASUU, said the body had
summoned an emergency meeting to look into
the case of the murdered lecturer.
Meanwhile, a 400 level Mathematical Science
student of the school, Jimoh Faruk, has also
been killed by the cult group.
The student was killed, according to a source,
around the dreaded Stadium Road on Saturday
night.

Killings by Boko Haram. Killings by armed robbers. Killings by ritualists. Killings by kidnappers. Killings by our government. Killings by universities cult groups. Are there any safe places in our beloved country?

So for a conscientious lecturer to do the right thing and fight exam malpractice is now a death sentence in Nigeria.

Soon only armed robbers and cultists will be lecturers in Nigeria.

But some lecturers are wicked and frustrating nonetheless
Death is not the right thing or punishment to be unleash on anybody.
