OAU Student Murder: Business Mogul Adedoyin Must…—A’Court

News Update

THE Court of Appeal in Akure, Ondo State, has upheld the death sentence handed to Dr Ramon Adedoyin, a prominent hotel owner, for his involvement in the murder of Timothy Adegoke, a former Master’s student of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.

Delivering its judgment on Thursday, the appellate court affirmed the verdict of the Osun State High Court, which had sentenced Adedoyin to death.

The Court of Appeal, which reserved its judgment on the matter on October 29, 2024, declared, “The judgment of the High Court of Osun State stands. Adedoyin’s appeal is dismissed in part. The Court of Appeal held that Adedoyin was properly convicted and sentenced to death.”

However, the appellate court set aside some aspects of the lower court’s orders. It ruled, “Order of forfeiture of Hilton Hotel quashed and set aside. Order of education scholarship to children of Timothy Adegoke by Adedoyin and others quashed and set aside.”

Adegoke’s death was reported in November 2021, after he was discovered lifeless at the Hilton Honours Hotel in Ile-Ife, where he had lodged.
