Victim of the group assault in FUTA, Boluwatife Adekunle, recently spoke with Sahara reporters and narrated what led to the assault.
Recall some few days ago, a video showing a group of student of the Federal University of Technology (FUTA), Akure, beating up a 100 level student went viral.

The victim narrated to Sahara reporters how the whole incidence came to be. According to her, she was assaulted by her colleagues for revealing how one of their boyfriends tried to have an affair with her.

“The whole issue started few weeks ago. I and one of the ladies in the video called ‘Faith’ were roommates in a hostel outside campus. Her boyfriend began asking me out but I felt it was not proper for me to date him. I rejected his advances. But instead of him to leave me alone, the guy kept disturbing me, so I had to report him to Faith because I don’t want trouble.”, she said.

“Before then, I had been having some issues with Faith as she had been living a wayward life on campus which I didn’t like. From that point, she started seeing me as talking bad about her to people around our area. During this period, her boyfriend kept pestering me to date him but I refused. Instead of Faith to caution her boyfriend, she accused me of planning to sleep with her man.”



When asked how she found herself in the room with the group of students who beat her up, she revealed that she was lured by the said roommate.

“On the day that I was assaulted, she invited me to a room in one of the hostels and boyfriend and other ladies were inside the place already. Immediately I entered the place, they locked the door and asked me to kneel down while the guy was asking if he ever asked me for a date. Since I refused to kneel down, they began to beat me and also tried to strip me naked. They used a stick to hit me on my head and punched me on my face. The guy used horsewhip to flog me several times. They said they would make sure they disgraced me on campus, I pleaded with them but they refused and I was about to faint when they stopped beating me. As I speak, I feel pains all over my body due to the beatings. Their plan was to kill me. I want them arrested and face the consequences of their action.”

The victim’s mother, Mrs Florence Adekunle, speaking on the issue says all she wants is justice for her daughter.

According to her,

“I was in the church on Sunday when her brother called me that they saw Boluwatife in a video and she was beaten up. I can’t imagine how friends would treat a fellow student like this. I’m aware that the school authority and even the police have taken up the matter, all the same we want justice.”
