“My late husband was planning to relocate our family abroad” – Wife of slain OAU MBA student, Timothy Adegoke









According to the mourning mother, her husband had the intention of relocating both her and their children overseas while he remained in Nigeria.

In the revelation made by Bolatito Adegoke, the wife of the slain MBA student of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) Ile-Ife, Timothy Adegoke, in an exclusive interview with Punch, it's obvious that her late husband had plans to relocate their family abroad before his tragic death. 

According to the mother of three, her husband had intended to move her and their children overseas while he remained in Nigeria. 



Speaking in Yoruba, she said, 
“He had promised to take us all overseas, and he would remain here. Our children attend expensive schools, and he had promised to take them out of Nigeria after they finish their primary six class”.

The family of Timothy finally received justice on Tuesday, May 30, when the owner of the Hilton Hotel in Ile-Ife, Adedoyin, and two others was sentenced to death by hanging for Timothy’s murder. 

Recall that Timothy Adegoke, who was pursuing his postgraduate studies, had sometime in November 2021 traveled from Abuja to Ile-Ife to write his examination. More so, all through the Examination period, He makes the provision to stay at the Hilton Hotel. However, he was reported missing by the police on November 7, 2021, when his friends and family couldn’t reach him. 

Following the alarm raised by his family, the police initiated an investigation, leading to the arrest of the hotel owner, Ramon Adedoyin, and six employees
