My 2 cousins were in Ife at the time. The junior was still telling me about it recently. He was in 100L BcH, and has just returned to a night class in Angola when it happened. He said Afrika's brother is a lawyer, and that he recently saw him at Onitsha with a lawyer friend.

It was unfortunate. His death helped to stop cultism totally, to the extent that you could walk freely without fear, and at any time on campus.
For someone like me, wey dey like waka waka for night, it wasn't a problem going from Awo to Agric or EDm around 2am, looking for fast WIFi internet. It was as safe as. And for that, I personally feel grateful. It's a shame it had to come with a heavy price. It also meant that students no come dey take ear hear anything cultism. Anyone wey dem catch, even if na suspect, na black and blue beating.

And for someone that lived in UNN at a time when cultism was rife, walking freely at night on the campus of UNN in those days (I can't say about now), was incomparable. It was scary and unsafe.
I still remember that cultists killed the CSO of UNN at the time, and the Dean of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Prof. Okide, who was from my hometown. Oh, boy, UNN was mad in those years. You know what it means for cultists to kill a lecturer; a prof.; a dean. Oh, my.

It is well.
Rest on, Afrika and the slain. You'll never be forgotten.
