A group of students at Oyo State’s Ajayi Crowther University (ACU) are said to have beaten to death Alex Timileyin, a 200-level student, for taking a cell phone.
On Saturday, May 25, 2024, the event occurred in a Shepherd Inn hotel on school grounds.
One report said that the students had also shaved the dead man’s hair off with force.
A school source who spoke to the Punch on the condition of anonymity because the story was private said that the victim was beaten from Friday at 6 pm to Saturday around 10 am.
“They said they caught him with a stolen phone. They started hitting him from 6 pm yesterday (Friday) until he died at about 10 am today (Saturday). The event happened at ‘Shepherd Inn’. It’s like a camp or a hotel now. They also shaved the hair of the guy before hitting him,” the source said.
