Body of Slain OAU MBA Student Not In Our Morgue, OAUTHC

Following the report in some quarters that the body of the late MBA student of Obafemi Awolowo University, Timothy Adegoke was deposited at the institution’s Teaching Hospital Complex, Ile-Ife, the management of the hospital has debunked the report.

Adegoke was in Ile-Ife from October 22 to October 24; October 29 to October 31, and had also planned to stay from November 5 to November 7, 2021.

Reacting in a statement on Saturday, OAUTH said the body of the deceased was never deposited in the facility for any coroner case as being reported on some social media platforms.

The statement read, “The attention of the Management of the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex, Ile-Ife, has been drawn to some publications on several social media platforms, claiming that the body of Timothy Adegoke was brought to the morgue of the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex for autopsy.

“Please we want to state, as a matter of fact that, the body of the deceased was never deposited in our hospital for any coroner case.
“Our hearts and prayers go to the Adegoke family. May God give them the fortitude to bear the weight of this difficult time.”
