Widow Of Slain OAU MBA Student Adegoke Speaks On Husband’s Aspirations
Bola Adegoke, the widow of Timothy Adegoke, the student of Obafemi Awolowo University OAU MBA Student who was found dead at the Hilton Hotel and Resorts , Ile-Ife, Osun state has revealed laid out plans her husband has for his family members.
According to the wife of the deceased, he had plans of relocating his family abroad due to the rising insecurity challenges in the country.
Speaking with FIJ, she said, “He said he would relocate me, his children and his parents abroad while he would remain in the country. His parents sent him to school from the proceeds of farming, and he stopped them from going to the farm.
“My husband had always used the hotel. So, they had been monitoring him. They were 16 in the hotel that night, and he was the only one they killed. I heard the hotel owner only uses people with good luck. We attend a white-garment church, and we had been told my husband had good luck.”
She however revealed that her husband was being monitored before his death, while she maintained that justice must be served to prevent such bad occurrences in the future.
“Although we have accepted our cross, I want justice. People must use hotels. If you travelled down to this place, you would still want to be lodged in a hotel in the evening. Ensuring justice in this case will discourage those who have plans to kill other people right now,” she said.
It was earlier reported that Usman Baba, the Inspector-General of Police, had waded into the case of Adegoke, who was found dead at the Hilton Hotel and Resorts, Ile-Ife, Osun State.
A police source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, had said a team from Abuja arrived at the Osun Police Command on November 25 to work out modalities on how to transfer the investigation to Abuja.
“I can confirm to you that the Force Headquarters, under the instruction of the IGP, has ordered the transfer of the case to Abuja. Rahmon Adegoke, the owner of the hotel, has also been transported to the Force Headquarters where investigations would continue,” he had said.
