He urged students to remain vigilant about their own safety and to promptly report any suspicious activities to the appropriate authorities.
With determination, he emphasized, “I want to assure you that her body was not mutilated. Her body is intact. We are going to get the justice that we deserve. We don’t care how many doors we have to open, how many offices we have to go to before getting that justice, we are going to get it.”
He called upon all 43,000 FUOYE students to stand together as a unified force during this trying time. He stressed the importance of maintaining heightened security awareness and urged swift reporting of any unusual or concerning behavior.
This heart-wrenching event has galvanized the FUOYE community, prompting them to come together in a poignant demonstration of support for their departed peer and a resolute demand for justice.
