Hikmat Gbadamosi, a 100 Level Chemical Engineering student of the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, has died of apparent suicide after a long-standing battle with depression. The departed was found dead in her room, yesterday, April 29. Hikmat’s best friend described how her depression stemmed from a long-standing pain, which was a result of a medical condition the deceased had been battling since birth.
She is assumed to have consumed two bottles of a poisonous substance on Saturday, and was only discovered on Monday, after her best friend mobilized classmates to her room to find out why she hadn’t shown up in school for a test they had yesterday.
