Just last year, Ayomide Ariyibi, a 100-level business administration student of the school, killed herself at home, according to Toyin Adebula, the deputy registrar.

According to an information shared on Facebook by Ajani Damilola, the student was accused of stealing clothes and make-up kits by her roommates in Amina Hall.

Damilola noted that the stolen items were found in her belongings which led her roommates to publicly disgrace her.

Ariyibi was said to have called her mother who came to the school to take her home after the incident.
