BSU tragedy: Family alleges Victor Egbe was murdered

By Morgan Adikwu

The social media platform, Facebook was on Wednesday, 12th October 2016, awashed with the story; ” Benue State University (BSU) Makurdi lost yet a medical student and the founder of Campus Witness Church, Apostle Victor Egbe in the early hours of today at the University Clinic after the young pastor went to pray for a student who is ill at the university clinic, the young pastor slumped and died immediately after the prayer. May your soul rest in perfect peace”.

But according to the statement issued by Pastor Emmanuel A. Egbe for the family, reads;
“The family of late Mr. Godwin Egbe is greatly disturbed with the conflicting details of the story about the sudden and mysterious death of their son victor Egbe a five hundred (500)level student of BSU.


One version says that, He slumped inside the school clinic. While another version said he came outside, prayed for a while, lean against the wall then slumped. And then yet another version said he slumped at the entrance of the clinic”.

However, the family is still bewildered at the spectrum of inconsistencies in the entire saga. A close observation of the corpse, revealed a SHARP DEEP CUT in-between the chin and the neck, that made him bleed for over ten hours, which the family suspected, he (Victor) must had been stabbed and a major vein cut within his neck region. 

Also, that his clothes was soaked in blood from his shoulder downward indicates, he started bleeding while standing.

In the attempt to uncover the mystery surrounding the death, the family is being frustrated with a perceived conspiracy, that the family members are alarmed and flummoxed at the attitude of most of the eye witnesses that refused to meet with them. Another baffling scenario, is the sudden disappearance of one “Pastor” Solomon, who is believed, was with Victor when the incident occurred. 

Despite the numerous calls put through to him (Solomon) to show up, proved abortive and up till now, he still at large. 

Also of equal disturbance, is the call put through, to Victor’s assistant, a female pastor by the same person he (Victor) prayed for, shortly after his death, to inquire if Victor had arrived home safely, but later astonishingly states, Victor slumped in front of him.
At the time of this report, the school management is still confused but said they are investigating the matter.
