Mojisola Awesu, a 21-year-old female student of the Kwara State College of Health Technology, has been found dead.

Awesu went missing after she was reportedly contracted by her friend to act as a girlfriend for a private varsity student at a party for the sum of N15,000.

The Kwara Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Toun Ejire-Adeyemi, in a statement on Tuesday, August 20, said she was found d£ad at a refuse dump in the Aleniboro area of Ilorin, Kwara State capital on August 12.

She added that on August 13, a report of a missing person was made by one Miss Blessing who claimed to be the deceased’s roommate.

According to her, “According to the report, Miss Mojisola received a phone call on August 9, from Miss Timileyin, who informed her about an event organised by students of Summit University and Al-Hikmah University in Ilorin.

Miss Timileyin introduced Mojisola to one Mr Adebayo Happiness, a student of Summit University, who allegedly invited her to the night party under the pretence of having her act as his girlfriend for a fee of N15,000.00.

Upon her arrival in Ilorin, Miss Mojisola informed her roommate that she felt uncomfortable in the hotel she was lodged by Adebayo Happiness and noted that there was no party at the said location.

Shortly after this communication, her phone was switched off and all subsequent efforts by Miss Blessing to reach her were unsuccessful.”

The Police spokesperson added that some suspects have been arrested in connection with the incident and are currently undergoing investigation.
