[p]A recent graduate of Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba, Akoko (AAUA) named Temitayo has tragically lost his life after being stabbed by a local resident over a debt of N1000. The incident occurred late in the evening on Thursday, April 6, in the vicinity of Ebenco filling station, opposite Akua junction in Akungba. According to reports, Temitayo was attacked with scissors and suffered serious injuries which ultimately proved fatal.

[p]Eyewitnesses say that Temitayo had intervened in a dispute between an individual known as "Egbon Adugbo" and a third party who owed Egbon Adugbo a sum of N4000. Temitayo had promised to settle the debt for the third party but was only able to reimburse N3000 of the outstanding balance. The remaining N1000 was still owed, and this apparently led to an argument which resulted in the fatal attack on Temitayo.
[/p][p]According to the University's Student Union, the perpetrators of the attack were demanding payment for the debt when Temitayo refused, insisting that he did not owe them anything and had only been trying to help out. The argument quickly escalated, and Temitayo was stabbed by the assailants who then proceeded to vandalize the surrounding area.
[/p][p]Passersby who witnessed the incident quickly rushed Temitayo to Aduloju Hospital, where he was stabilized for a brief period of time. Unfortunately, his injuries proved too severe, and he passed away soon after.
[/p][p]The tragic incident has sent shockwaves through the AAUA community and beyond, with many people expressing their condolences and calling for justice for Temitayo. It serves as a sobering reminder of the dangers that can arise from seemingly minor disputes and highlights the need for greater understanding and empathy in our interactions with others.
