ABSU Confirms Death Of 400 Level Student Who Jumped From 3-Storey Building After Smoking Hard Drug

The Authorities of the Abia State University Uturu ABSU, have
confirmed the death of a 400-level Optometry student of the
university who jumped down from a three-story building after
allegedly smoking drug.

The incident reportedly happened on Saturday at the deceased
lodge called Favour lodge located off the campus.

According to reports, the deceased student took a hard drug
known as Colorado and could not contain its effect.

His friends reportedly locked him inside the room and went in
search of garri to help him come back to his sense.

But before they could return, the deceased went through the
balcony, thinking that he was on the ground floor, jumped down from
the building, and died immediately.

Chief Security Officer, CSO of the institution, Ret. Navy
Commander ThankGod Evulobi who confirmed the incident to our
Correspondent, described it as one of the regrettable consequences
of hard drugs.

He gave the name of the student as one Kamsi, from Imo
State.

According to him the student drugged himself and told his
friends that he was going out only for him to jump out from the
window.

He said he was immediately rushed to the hospital where he was
confirmed dead.

The CSO said that the parents of the student had already come to
identify him and carried the corpse after meeting with the
police.

He decried the effect of hard drugs among youths and advised
parents to monitor the activities of their children.

“These youths begin to consume hard drugs right from secondary
school and when they come to the university they become
uncontrollable.

“We have continued to educate our students on the dangers of
hard drugs but some of them feel they are big boys. It’s
unfortunate and parents need to do more especially when they are in
secondary school.
