Maria Precious Tunde, a final-year student of the University of Benin (UNIBEN), has died in her sleep.
According to reports, Maria had gone to bed on the night of her passing feeling perfectly fine. However, when her cotenants attempted to wake her the following morning, she did not respond.
After all efforts to resuscitate her proved abortive, co-tenants invited her parents to the scene.
The Nigerian Tribune reports that the sad incident occurred on Sunday, April 30, 2023, at the deceased off-campus hostel, located at Ekosodin Village, a student town near the school.
Until her death, Maria was a final-year student in the Faculty of Education at the Ugbowo campus of the institution.
In other news, a Nigerian man has reportedly died of shock after discovering that his wife, whom he sponsored abroad for a better life, has gotten pregnant by another man.
According to a Twitter user, @BolanleCole, who shared the story on the microblogging platform, the man had struggled to send his wife and two kids to the United Kingdom so they could have a better life while he remained in Nigeria.
Sadly, when the wife got there, she began having extramarital affairs with other men until she fell pregnant, and the husband only found out about it recently.
Bolanle Cole noted that the news of his wife’s infidelity and pregnancy was too much for the man to bear, resulting in his death.
