The Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), has cleared Oladokun Ayomide, a final-year student, of allegations of poisoning his girlfriend and another lady.
VerseNews reports that the Ogun State Police Command had earlier arrested Ayomide for allegedly poisoning Ugbokwe Mmasichukwu and Odumosu Semilore.
The police said the suspect administered a poison believed to be an admixture of brownie cakes, alcohol, and an unknown harmful substance after inviting his girlfriend to his residence in the Surulere community in the Camp area of the city on Friday, November 10.
But, according to a statement by Olasunkanmi Olajide, the Assistant Director, Media Directorate of Public Relations, FUNAAB, which was made available to newsmen on Thursday, the cakes purchased by Ayomide “contained a high level of alcohol. This led to the unintentional intoxication of the consumers”.
Medical examinations conducted by the institution’s health centre revealed that “Ayomide had no malicious intent”, the statement said.
The affected individuals were discharged from the hospital the following day and even participated in their examinations on November 10, 2023, it added.
