The serene atmosphere at Obafemi Awolowo University OAU, Ile-Ife was on Tuesday night shattered as a lecturer in the department of Agricultural Economics of the institution, Dr. Deji Adejobi, was killed by suspected assassins at his residence located at The-Dawn area, near the Ife toll gate in Ile-Ife, Osun State.
According to Adejobi’s gateman (names withheld), who recounted how the incident took place said the assailants trailed the deceased to his house at exactly 10:10 on Tuesdayevening and shot him twice after shooting into the air to scare the residents of the community.
Also, one of the children of the late lecturer, Oyin Adejobi, in an emotion laden voice narrated how her father was murdered in cold blood.
“As we finished our evening prayer at 10:05 pm, Dady drove into the compound. Then I overheard an argument between the gateman and some strange people. I quickly looked from the window and I saw another black car that entered our compound together with Daddy’s car. Our gateman was querying the occupants of the other car but they hit him and ordered him to lie down.
“The men in the black car came out before daddy could alight from his car and one of them shot into the air. Two of them advanced to dadd’s car while others came inside. Grandma started begging those that came inside to spare our lives . Suddenly, we heard gunshot twice from the outside.
“The assailants left at 10:20 and took daddy’s car away. I overheard daddy begging them that they should not take him away. When they left, we thought they took him away and we started praying for the safety of daddy without knowing that he had been killed. When the police came, they saw his lifeless body in the flower”, Oyin explained .
The younger brother of the deceased who is also the Public Relations Officer PPRO for Ogun State Police Command, Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi described the death of his brother as very pathetic.
The Police Public Relation Officer for Osun State Police Command, Mrs Folashade Odoro while confirming the incident said the command has commenced investigation into the matter and assured that the police would fish out the killers
The Public Relation Officer of OAU, Mr Abiodun Olanrewaju also said the death of Dr Adejobi was very unfortunate, adding that the
management, staff and students of the university were very sad about the development.
Olanrewaju regretted that it was unfortunate that university lecturers have become the target of kidnappers, armed robbers and assassins. He warned that the trend is dangerous for education system in the country.

Yeah

We have had high-profile murder cases go unresolved and the murderers walking free. I doubt if this would be an exception. It is time the Police started looking in this direction with the aim of arresting such individual and making sure they are kept behind bars forever.

RIP Mr. Lecturer.

RIP to him.... May God grant hus family the fortitude to bear this loss


But this should be a warning sign to Nigerian lecturers who constitute themselves into demigods in tertiary institutions and unnecessarily academically, emotionally, and sexually terrorize their students .... While some students can stand the abuse and move on with their lives, others may not be as forgiving... Some students may choose to exact their revenge in a very deadly manner

STUDENTS DIDN'T GET INTO THESE INSTITUTIONS IN ORDER TO BECOME LECTURERS' SLAVES.... LECTURERS SHOULD LEARN TO BE CIVIL AND RESPONSIBLE IN DISCHARGING THEIR DUTIES.... A FRUSTRATED STUDENT MAY BECOME A MAD STUDENT AND PUT A BULLET OR MACHETE IN THE WRONG PLACE


As per the murderers of this lecturer, I have no curse to place on them.... Only God knows the circumstances leading up to the Murder.... LET GOD JUDGE BOTH THE MURDERER AND THE MURDERED

So hav d hired assassins gained. God wil judge dem
