The management of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State on Sunday said it has reported the case of a missing female student of the institution to the police.

A statement signed by the university’s Public Relations Officer, Abiodun Olarewaju, said Dorcas Oseghale, a student in the Department of Chemistry with Matric number CHM/2021/165, had not been seen for four days.

“The student, Dorcas Oseghale, of the Department of Chemistry with Matric number: CHM/2021/165, was last seen on the evening of 6th of August, 2025 at about 8 pm.

“When Dorcas, who resides at Adesanmi House, Ibadan Road, Ile – Ife, said that she was going out to buy food in front of the students’ village, along Ede Road axis of the university, did not return on time, her roommate then made several attempts to reach her on phone but surprisingly discovered that her two lines were not reachable,” he said.

The spokesperson said that at about 3pm on August 7, 2025, the university’s Security Unit began tracking discussions on a students’ social media platform after receiving a report of a missing female student.

“But around 6:10 pm on the same day, a group of students from the Department of Chemistry, in search of the missing student, 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,” Olarenwaju said.

After considering the complexity of the case and its limitations in terms of human and material resources, Olanrewaju said the Security Unit of the university subsequently detailed three of its personnel to lead the students and report its preliminary findings to the police.

Meanwhile, the Vice Chancellor of the university, Prof. Simeon Bamire, while reacting to the development, commended the students for their proactiveness, having quickly noticed that one of them was missing and promptly reported the same to the appropriate quarters.

He appealed to the police and other security agencies to do all within their power to help find the missing student.

He called on anybody who may have useful information that can assist the security agencies on the whereabout of Dorcas to report to the nearest police station, the VC also said such information can also be made available to the security unit of the university.

He would simply apologize and his since will be forgiven and a mere 6 months bank would be given. In Nigeria now once you commit a crime simply apologize and join APC they will protect you
