A Nigerian student identified as Fadlullah Agboluaje has died mysteriously in Ukraine about 24 hours after landing in the European country to resume studies.

Fadlullah’s death has left the family in total shock as they demand answers from the Lviv Polytechnic National University, the largest scientific university in the western city of Ukraine.

According to his sister, Rofiah Agboluaje who goes by @rofeehaagboluaje on Instagram, Fadlullah left Nigeria “on Saturday 8th January 2022 and landed in Ukraine on Sunday 9th January 2022.

“He got picked up from the airport by Lviv polytechnic National University’s representative to the school accommodation facility this same day, 9th January 2022.”

The deceased was said to have made complaints about the deplorable state of the room he was given when he got to the school.

She mentioned that deceased said the heater wasn’t effective and my mum told him to request a change of room. So he went to the front desk of the accommodation facility to report to the personnel on duty.

Unfortunately, the person didn’t understand English so he ended up reaching out to the liaison officer, the undersigned agent on the letter the school sent before he left for Ukraine. This man asked my brother to see him in the morning the following day.

Rofiah said, “My brother left Nigeria very healthy. He ran the COVID-19 test as of the 7th of January and tested negative. He got the full COVID-19 vaccination, took his yellow fever vaccine, ran a complete health check at our family hospital and everything came out fine.

“My mum chatted with my brother up until 11pm Nigeria time on Sunday.

“However, mother began to panic when they didn’t hear from my brother, all his calls were going through, messages were dropping but no responses at all on Monday.

“They reached out to the liaison officer on the letter (but he) began to dodge our calls, keeping us in the dark.

“He ended up picking his calls later that evening and then gave a student in that accommodation facility the phone to break the news that my brother was found dead on the floor of his room.”

As of the time of filing this report, the family had filed an online petition which has already been signed by 1,480 people, 20 more to get to 1,500 which will make it more likely to get picked up by local news, according to Change.org.
