Nineteen-year-old Opesusi Faith Timilehin on Monday took ‘Push Out’ rodent poison after scoring 190 in the just-released results of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), organised by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
Timilehin, from Abeokuta, lived at Odogunyan in Ikorodu, Lagos State, with her elder sibling.
According to Guardian newspaper, neighbors and residents mourned Timilehin, whom they described as “gentle and humble.”
A family source said the deceased, who applied for microbiology, also sat for the same examination last year.
“She said her last year’s result was better than this year’s,” one of her close allies (name withheld) told our newsmen on the phone.
According to information, Timilehin scored higher than her current 190 in the previous JAMB result in 2024.
Ironically, JAMB gave her provisional admission just about 30 minutes after she was confirmed dead at Kolak Hospital in Odogunyan.
“The shocking revelation is that she was given an admission message via her Gmail yesterday, immediately after she was confirmed dead at Kolak Hospital, Odogunyan, Ikorodu, Lagos,” the source stated.
Meanwhile, Timilehin’s parents, on hearing the sad news, arrived in Ikorodu, allegedly to pick up her remains back to Abeokuta for burial, leaving the residents to rain curses on JAMB for the general mass failure recorded in the examination.
