HOW IT HAPPENED 

Mrs Oluwatoyin, was invigilating secondary school students, sitting for an Islamic exam, and noticed that some of the students still had their bags with them as exams was about to start. She took the bags and kept them on the floor in front of the class.

 One of the students who had her Quran in her bag began crying that she has desecrated the Quran by putting it on the floor. 

Lol and behold, other students who had no idea on what happened, started shouting Allahu Akbar, it didn't take minutes before the rumours spread and the students surrounded her seeking for her blood. The principal tried to explain but they wouldn't listen,then she made frantic move to save her to no avail. 

These students tied her up, cut her into pieces and set her remains ablaze. After they had  finished with her, they proceeded to burn her car and also tried to k!ll her then 10-months son who fortunately,got saved by another woman who hid the child under her garment.

 

DID SHE GET JUSTICE?

Absolutely no!! Her killers were arrested were arrested during the uproar and they confessed to killing her, but were later released and set free by those in charge of the Justice system. The husband however, continued receiving death threats, telling him to forget the case or join his wife.
