JusticeForChristianah: Public Outcry Grows For Legal Proceedings Against Alleged Killer Of Ogun Student
Social media, particularly X (formerly Twitter), is abuzz with outrage over the murder of Idowu Christianah, a 200-level student at Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU) in Ogun State. Reports indicate that Christianah was allegedly killed by Adeleye Ayomide, also an OOU student……CONTINUE READING
Christianah went missing after her abductors used her WhatsApp account to send her parents photos of her in captivity and demanded ₦1.5 million in ransom. Her family managed to raise ₦350,000, which they transferred to a betting account as directed by the kidnappers. However, after receiving the ransom, the kidnappers demanded a bank statement, which the family provided, but communication ceased shortly after.
Investigations revealed that some of the ransom funds were deposited into Christianah’s GTBank account and then transferred to a Wema Bank account linked to Ayomide. By August 29, investigators traced the bank accounts to Ayomide, who had withdrawn ₦100,000 before the account was frozen. Further investigation revealed Ayomide’s connection to Christianah through their Instagram interactions.
Authorities traced Ayomide’s mobile device to his family home in Ikorodu, leading to his arrest by military personnel from the 174 Battalion. A search of his phone uncovered incriminating evidence, including Christianah’s phone and bank records linking Ayomide to the crime. On Tuesday, Ayomide reportedly confessed to killing Christianah and burying her at his family home.
In response, social media users have launched a campaign under the hashtag #JusticeForChristianah, demanding the suspect’s prosecution. Some users have suggested that Ayomide might have been involved in the deaths of his ex-girlfriend in 2018 and his sister in 2020 under similar circumstances.
Tweets from outraged users include:
– **MrMekzy**: “Killed his own sister and buried her. Killed his girlfriend and buried her. Killed Christianah and buried her. Tie this animal to a drum and put a lot of holes in his chest region. #JusticeForChristianah.”
– **Shaba**: “That serial killer AYOMIDE was always retweeting Wizarab and Shola. The Incel community is a cancer, seeing women as nothing but items. #JusticeForChristianah.”
– **Ijoba**: “If at age 15, he raped a 14-year-old girl and put her in a coma, and at 17 killed his first victim, we need to ask his parents a lot of questions. #JusticeForChristianah.”
– **Aproko Doctor**: “The members of his family who covered up previous murders should face the law. #JusticeForChristianah.”
– **Dipo Awojide**: “I hope the police will fully investigate Adeleye Ayomide. If found guilty of Christianah’s murder, he should be hanged. #JusticeForChristianah.”
Users like **Oluwadamilola** have called for severe punishment, stating, “You killed your ex-girlfriend in 2018, your sister in 2020, and now your friend in 2024. He shouldn’t die an easy death. Death by firing squad or burn him alive.”
