Suspected internet fraudster kills 48-year-old teacher in Oyo community

Mrs Abimbola Adeola Uthman, 48, has killed  allegedly killed in an auto crash by a suspected internet fraudster.

It was gathered that the deceased who was a teacher at Islamic High School, Basorun, and a mother-of-three, was crush by the internet fraudster on October 14, opposite the University of Ibadan, Oyo State.

Confirming the sad incident, the deceased’s brother, Agbejinmi Oyewumi, said: “The daughter told me that her mother went to meet the eldest daughter, who was returning to Ibadan from Ekiti State at the gate of the University of Ibadan. That was on October 14, at about 8pm. She went to the Ul where
she intended to pick the eldest daughter. She wanted to park her car in front of a bank there when a wine coloured Sienna mini bus hit her car from behind.

“My sister came down to check the extent of the damage done to her car by the Toyota Sienna but the driver of the vehicle which hit her did not come down and was not moved at all. She told the young man to park and
come down to check the damage but the young man was said to have threatened to crush her with his vehicle if she didn’t leave the road. And even before she could move, the boy crushed her and she was rushed to
hospital to save her life but she died hours later.

“The yahoo boy fled with his vehicle immediately he crushed her. It was her daughter who was in the car with her that narrated what transpired. She gave the
description of the boy; she said he was wearing dreadlocks, the typical hairstyle of Yahoo boys. She said the boy is short and fair in complexion.”

However, he noted that the matter was reported to the police operatives at Sango police division while his sister was laid to rest on October 19th.
