The lifeless body of Osun State Polytechnic, Iree’s student, Adedoyin Ewejobi, has been discovered in his hostel room at Eyinade area of the polytechnic town.
The stench from Ewejobi’s decomposing body, which engulfed the hostel, compelled the Police to break into his room.
Eyewitness accounts revealed that the deceased was found dead in the pool of his own blood last Saturday.
Sources said residents noticed that the student had injuries on three parts of his body, suggesting that he was stabbed and left to bleed to death by yet to be identified assailants.
The deceased, until his death was a Business Administration student of the Daily Part Time programme of the institution, was said to have been out of sight for some days before his corpse was found.
One of his neighbours, who preferred anonymity, said that if not for the offensive odour perceived, no one would have known Ewejobi was dead.
“We noticed that we had not been seeing him (deceased) for about four days now. If not for the offensive odour oozing from his room, we wouldn’t have known that he is dead.
“We had to break the gate and his room’s door before we discovered him lying in the pool of his blood.
“I don’t know the cause of his death. But there were some open injuries on his body.”
The Police Public Relations Officer, Osun Command, Yemisi Opalola, confirmed the incident, saying that investigation was ongoing
