He stated that the case had been reported to the police, adding that the killing was not cult-related.

“We have reported the murder case to the police, but it seems they are slow in responding to our demands for identifying and tracking those behind this dastardly act,” he said.

While confirming the incident, the Police spokesperson in the state, Funmilayo Odunlami, said investigation has begun into the case.

Noting that the student’s remains have been deposited in the mortuary, Odunlami added, “We are not sure if it’s a cult-related activity because she was murdered in her room situated off the campus, but investigation is going to unravel the cause.”
