According to an eyewitness report, the 22-year-old student fell ill at her hostel at about 4 am and was rushed to the medical center for treatment. However, the health workers requested that a N200 consulting card must first be bought before she would be attended to. He added that they were unable to get the card because those in charge of selling the card were not available. She was allegedly left unattended for hours until she eventually gave up the ghost.

Her death sparked outrage on campus as the students protested the avoidable death of their colleague due to alleged negligence.
