Dr. Olabode Abimbola Ibikunle, a prominent lecturer at Kogi State University in Anyigba, lost his life after falling in a hotel room while having sex with a female student, age 22.
According to information received, the event occurred on Tuesday, July 15, 2025, and the Anyigba Police Division was notified the next day.
The student, identified as Gloria Samuel, a 200-level Social Studies Education student, was said to have checked into a hotel with the instructor, who was a professor at the university’s Faculty of Education.
He reportedly had many energy drinks before collapsing during their time together in the room, according to accounts obtained.
After the student hurried to the reception for assistance, the hotel manager sounded an alarm.
After being promptly alerted, the police showed up at the hotel to take the lecturer to a hospital, where an on-duty physician subsequently declared him dead.
The case has been turned over to the Kogi State Police Command.

After being placed under custody, the student was taken to the State Criminal Investigation Department to be questioned further.
Although the outcome has not been made public, police reported that an autopsy had been conducted.
The girl in question has been moved to the State CID for additional investigation and prosecution from the Anyigba Police Division. The Command spokesperson, SP William Ovye Aya, told Sahara Reporters, “An autopsy has been conducted, but I haven’t spoken with the SCID, so I don’t know whether the results are out yet.”
Married with kids, Dr. Ibikunle was notoriously tough on campus.
