That Day, She Was Heading To UNILAG for Her IT…
Probably, she would have shelved her going to the University of Lagos (UNILAG) that day for her Industrial Training (IT) exercise.
But that was not the first day anyway, besides it was mandatory she did, not knowing what fate had in the wait for her
Between her Itaoluwo area of Ikorodu residence and Yaba, something snapped: Christiana Idowu, student of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Ogun State , fell into the hands of kidnappers.
Her abduction was to be confirmed to Punch by the president of the Student Union Government of FUNAAB, Ibrahim Adeyemi, in the following words: “The Union can confirm that she was reportedly killed by her abductor. We will be addressing the matter soon.”
Next was that the kidnappers had begun to demand for sum of N3m as a ransom, but pleas from the parents with whom they had established contact, according to Punch source, made them reduce the ransom to N350, 000 .

The issue took a more negative twist when after the payment of the money, the abductors refused to release the lady, in fact they eventually killed her.
That was to mark the end of life of the lady who was heading to UNILAG for her industrial training.
The police obviously did commendably well, by successfully dictating the location of the abductors using personal details already incident in official documentations.
The report said “Investigation by intelligence operatives began on the 26th to unravel details of the account number.
“By the 29th, intelligence operatives had confirmation from the bank that the BVN linked to the masked Betting account allegedly belonged to the account owner (name withheld for now) who also operates the Wema Bank (account no withheld for now)
“Further investigation revealed that he was able to withdraw the sum of N100,000 from the betting account before agents got the betting company to lock the account.”

“Armed by this information, operatives began an investigation into the suspect whom they observed to have a mutual relationship with Christiannah Idowu, especially judging by Instagram posts as they both commented on each other’s pages.
“With all this information at hand, the operatives began to track down his cell phone activities and text messages. The cell phone tracking led them to his parent’s house, somewhere in Ikorodu”.
Apparently, it was not just heading to UNILAG for her IT given that there was a level of familiarity with those eventually perpetrated the act.
In fact, there is a local proverb that it is somebody who is familiar to people that usually undoes them..
