The management of the College of Medicine of the University of Lagos (CMUL) has confirmed the death of a 300-level student identified as Williams.
The provost of the college, David Oke, a professor, told PREMIUM TIMES Sunday evening that the cause of death was still unknown, but suspected that it might be related to suicide, potentially triggered by depression or the pressure of upcoming examinations.
Mr Oke described the incident as shocking and said the college’s management was deeply concerned. He said a post-mortem would be conducted on the body after a scheduled meeting with the family of the deceased on Monday.
