A final-year student of Enugu State University of Science and Technology, ESUT, Mbah Ezinne, has been found dead in her room.

The lifeless body of the Anatomy student was discovered in her residence on July 31, 2023, following her noticeable absence in church.

Ezinne, who was very active in church, had attended a praise night with her friends on Friday, July 28. The group went home around 4am on Saturday and expected to converge in church again for the Youth Day festivities on Sunday, July 30.

According to reports, Ezinne failed to show up in church, which sparked concern from her friends. They tried calling her repeatedly but her mobile line was not reachable.

One Chisom Onyedikachi, who spoke to Reporters, stated that after her disappearance, her brother Stephen and some of her friends went to her apartment in Enugu.

When they got there on Monday afternoon, they peeped through her window and found Ezinne and a male friend, said to be her coursemate, lying on the floor.

Her brother tried to break into the apartment but was advised to contact the police before taking any action. When the police arrived, they rushed the victims to the hospital, but sadly, Ezinne was pronounced dead while her friend was resuscitated.

It was gathered that the male friend is still battling for his life in a hospital. Friends and family of the deceased are hoping he recovers and reveal what happened to them.
