A student of The Polytechnic, Ibadan has been found dead, while his girlfriend lay unconscious on top of him.

The boy, identified simply as Oromidayo with his yet to be identified girlf are said to have both been met naked in his hostel room.

Doctors are also reported to have battled to revive the young lady at the University College Hospital, Ibadan.

There are, however, different versions of what led to the tragic incident.

While some students said that the duo were found naked with Oromidayo’s girlfriend lying on top of him in his hostel, others said they were naked in the bathroom of the hostel.

A student, who spoke on conditions of anonymity, reported that the two students were engaged in intense sex when Oromidayo died and his lover fainted.

According to him, “Both of them were found naked in the room. The girl was on top of Oromidayo, as his hands were around her waist; both of them were unconscious as blood was seen around Oromidayo’s head.

“Some other persons said Oromidayo died because he used a sex enhancement drug before sleeping with the girl. It is only an autopsy that can reveal the cause of death or maybe when the girl that is in a coma in the UCH, Ibadan, regains consciousness.”

The Student Union President, The Polytechnic, Ibadan, Abdulazeez Adedeji, confirmed the incident. Adedeji added that the academic community was suspecting the duo were killed by generator fumes.

He said, “On Sunday, the two of them were together at the hostel when the incident happened. When I got to the hostel yesterday (Monday), I realised that the fumes emanating from the generator were coming directly into his (Oromidayo’s) room.

“Generator fumes are harmful to health and that is one reason. The second part is that he lost his parents two weeks ago; his brother died on Saturday and was buried that same day, and he died on Monday. So, the suspicion is that the shock could be responsible for what happened to him as people said maybe he drugged himself or thought to the extent that he could not control himself.

“Both of them were found naked; we were to start exams yesterday if not for a protest; we found the book he was reading in his hostel. We gathered that they were found naked in the toilet of the hostel. His family has taken his corpse and the girl is on a life support machine at the UCH.”
