OAU commiserates with Adegoke Oludare’s family

The management of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, has described as unfortunate the death of Mr. Adegoke Timothy Oludare, a student of the institution’s Executive Master in Business Administration (MBA) programme who was reported missing on 7th November, 2021.

A release by the Public Relations Officer of the University, Abiodun Olarewaju, stated that the Vice Chancellor of the University, Professor Eyitope Ogunbodede, who expressed sadness over the incident, appreciated the prompt action and painstaking investigation of the Osun State Command of the Nigerian Police, which eventually led to the discovery of Mr. Adegoke’s corpse.

Professor Ogunbodede while sympathizing with the family recognised the tenacity and doggedness of the late Mr. Adegoke’s wife which assisted, in no small measures, in unravelling the circumstances of her husband’s movement in Ile Ife.

He charged the widow, children, family, friends, colleagues and associates to take solace in the fact Mr. Adegoke left positive footprints and impacted numerous lives, and that “death is a necessary end that will come when it will come”.

The Vice-Chancellor pledged the commitment of the University administration to work with the law enforcement agents to unravel the circumstances leading to the death of Mr. Adegoke.

He prayed for the repose of the soul of Mr. Adegoke and that God should grant the family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
