The Management of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, has addressed a tragic incident involving Mr. Kenneth Oyeaka Rapuchukwu, a 28-year-old electrician from Aguleri, who jumped from a 3-storey building, Seat of Wisdom Lodge, Ifite-Awka, on June 5, 2025, after allegedly consuming an illicit substance.
The attention of the Management of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, has been drawn to a tragic incident involving one Mr. Kenneth Oyeaka Rapuchukwu, a 28-year-old electrician from Aguleri, who jumped from a 3-storey building known as Seat of Wisdom Lodge, Ifite-Awka, on June 5, 2025, after allegedly consuming an illicit substance.
Contrary to information and viral video trending on social media, information reveals that Mr. Kenneth Oyeaka Rapuchukwu IS NOT a student of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka.
However, the remains of the deceased have been deposited at the mortuary, and a thorough investigation by security agencies** is currently underway.
Meanwhile, the University’s Centre for Counselling and Career Development is well-equipped to address psychological health issues, including substance-related concerns, for both students and staff. This makes it unlikely that the victim was a student of the university.
The University Management kindly requests the public to remain calm and cooperate with the ongoing investigation by the relevant agencies. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this time.
