Asked if the deceased ever confided in him about his frustrations, Mayowa replied; “He never showed it. But I could remember in Part Four, he told me that there’s pressure from home and that they don’t know what he is facing in school. They want him to graduate with a first class or Second class upper.”
“What has happened has happened and the family is not happy. They don’t want any other information published. After all, his picture has been circulated on the internet,” he told PREMIUM TIMES.Usman Opeyemi, a final year student opined that although Mr Olowoporoku went through trying times, suicide should not have been an option.
