School reacts to student’s alleged suicide, tasks police to dig deep into the matter

Management of College of  Techhnogy, Ipetu-Ijesha, Osun State wants  Police to dig into the circumstance that led to the death of its student, Olonade  Victor Semilore whose lifeless body was found hanging on a telephone cable at a residential apartment in Isokun Area of Ilesa., Osun State

In a statement, by the head of the institution, Prince Olaniyi Adegoke, the school described the incident which occurred on the 10^th of this month as worrisome

“It is unfortunate that such a young boy full of potentials, a promising programmer could just pass away in such manner. The incident is unfortunate and the school would miss him so dearly”. It states

According to the statement , Victor, a 17 years old  part one Computer Software Engineering student of the institution did not take permission from school before embarking  on his journey to Ilesa that fateful day.

“Victor was a part one student of Computer Software Engineering, College of Technology, Ipetu-Ijesha until his death. According to the information attached to his bio-data during the admission process to the college, this young boy hailed from Ife- North Local Government but resides in Ondo town in Ondo State.” The statement emphasizes.

While commiserating with the family of the deceased, the statement points out that the school only  recognizes the Ondo based  woman  who presented herself as Victor’s  guardian and not the woman who is resident in Ilesa in whose house Victor died.

“The school has  no record of any other mother or guardian from any other place. The School authority gathered that one woman who is  said to be residing in Ilesha has been claiming to be Victor’s mother. The school would like to state that this other woman from Ilesha whose place Victor was reported to have visited on the day of his death is not known to the school at all neither is the school in the know of her connection to Late  Victor Olonade Semilore“, the statement hints

It also clarifies that Victor did not reside in the school as the school has no hostel accommodation.

“The school would want to clarify that as at this moment, there is no hostel facility, accommodation or hall of residence  belonging to the school. Once a student is admitted, the school would expect him to sort out his accommodation within the town” it adds

It will be recalled that Victor was found hung on a telephone cable in a kneeling position in a compound at Isokun area of Ilesa on the 10^th of this month and his mother Mrs Elemese said on her Facebook account three days later that his son was murdered, calling on police to fetch out his killer.
