It was an atmosphere full of emotions on Friday during the service of songs and burial of the 100 Level Microbiology student of University of Benin (UNIBEN), Uwaila Vera Omozuwa, who was gangraped and murdered inside a Redeemed Christian Church of God parish in Edo State.
The cleric in charge of Peace Sanctuary of the RCCG, Benin, Pastor Dele Balogun, described the late Omozuwa as a very devout member of the church, who did not joke with the things of God.
Pastor Balogun also noted that although the incident was painful, but the murdered undergraduate was committed to God’s work to the end.
Omozuwa’s remains were later interred at the Third Cemetery, Benin.
The members of Omozuwa’s family, in a press statement, described the gangraped undergraduate as a very hardworking and committed daughter, who would be greatly missed.
They said she lived her life as a dedicated Christian, who took the things of God very seriously.
The undergraduate was reading her books inside the church, when she was gangraped and murdered.
Edo Commissioner of Police, Babatunde Kokumo, later paraded six suspects: Nelson Ogbebor, Akato Valentine, Mrs. Tina Samuel, Mrs. Mary Ade, Nosa Osabohien and Collins Ulegbe, in connection with the dastardly act.
