A 200-level Political Science student at Rev. Fr. Moses Orshio Adasu University (MOAUM), Rose Adikwu, is hospitalised in Makurdi after an alleged scalding attack by a cousin. Both reports say Adikwu suffers severe burns and receives treatment at a private medical facility in Benue State.
The accounts differ in the description of what was used in the alleged assault. One outlet reports that her cousin allegedly pours a hot pepper mixture on her, while another describes the incident as an attack using hot water. Both sources link the alleged attack to a disagreement involving her cousin and a co-tenant, and identify the incident as taking place in Makurdi.
As reported, the matter is being handled through the student’s admission for medical care, but neither article provides details on charges, police reports, or official statements confirming the circumstances beyond the allegations. The reports focus mainly on the victim’s condition and the alleged role of the cousin.
