    Oyo Assembly has described the torture and killing of a student at Ajayi Crowther university in the school hostel as barbaric and appalling act against humanity.

    The lawmakers spoke while reacting to the Matter of Urgent Public Importance presented by the Chief Whip, Hon. Gbenga Oyekola representing Atiba state constituency during the last proceedings.

    The motion titled “Urgent needs for government action regarding the torture and murder of Alexander , A 200 level Engineering student at Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo” explained the unfortunate incident, which led to the death of the deceased,  that he was subjected to severe physical abuse.

    “Akor Alexander Timileyin, a promising 200 Level Mechanical Engineering Student at Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo was found brutally tortured and murdered. The tragic incident deteriorated from mere accusation of phone theft to torture and subsequent death of Alexander.

    “The preliminary investigation has revealed that Alexander was last seen leaving the University library late in the evening and his body was discovered by the University’s security personnel the following morning in front of one of the hostel rooms,” the motion stated.

    Oyekola stressed that the brutal murder of Alexander is not only representing a personal tragedy but also raises broader concerns about the safety of students across the educational institutions.

    “If immediate steps are not taken to enhance security, conduct a thorough investigation, and bring the perpetrators to justice, it could result in a loss of confidence in the safety of educational environment, potentially deterring students and their families from pursuing academic endeavour,” he added.

    While urging the Oyo Police Command to expedite investigation and apprehend the perpetrators behind the unlawful act, the House has however directed its Standing Committee on Tertiary Institutions to pay a condolence visit to the school and discuss on further means of ensuring students safety in the campus premises.

    In addition, the House also urged the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology to collaborate with University authorities to conduct a comprehensive review of campus security protocols and implement necessary enhancements to ensure students’ safety.
