Peter Adum, a cousin of the deceased Mike Oje, shares the story of how the 38-year-old Guidance and Counselling graduate from Benue State University was beaten to death by an angry neighbor in Mowe-Ofada, Ogun State. Mike, who had just graduated, was working as a caretaker for a house owned by a company called iLOT. The house was initially given as a prize for correctly predicting the winner of the World Cup.
Mike's cousin was familiar with the residents of the estate and had worked there for about two months before his death. On August 26, Mike returned from work and played with a three or four-year-old boy named Adebiri. The father of the boy then accused Mike of playing roughly with his child and slapped him with a bamboo stick, causing Mike to fall and die on the spot.
The family is seeking justice for Mike's death and has taken his body to the mortuary for an autopsy.
