Hikmat Gbadamosi, a 100 Level Chemical Engineering student of the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, has died of an apparent suicide after a long-standing battle with depression.
Late Hikmat was found dead in her room, yesterday, April 29. According to her best friend, the deceased had been battling a medical condition since birth and the resulting pain sent her into depression.
She is assumed to have consumed two bottles of a poisonous substance on Saturday and was only discovered on Monday after her best friend mobilized classmates to her room to know why she didn’t show up in school for a test they had yesterday.
