TWO FEMALE UNILAG STUDENTS DIE IN HOTEL FIRE.


Two students of the University of Lagos have died in a midnight fire at a Lagos hotel. Roli Odogwu, a 200-Level Mass Communication student, and Linda Elegeonye, a 300-Level Law student, died of burns, days after they were trapped in the hotel room where they were guests.


Until their death, the two students were residents of Fagunwa Hall. It was gathered that the duo left the campus on Monday to attend an evening event off-campus. When it dawned on them that they could not return to the campus late in the night, they reportedly lodged in the hotel to pass the night.

The late Roli’s friend, who wants to remain anonymous, said she spoke to her mother to inform her of her decision to pass the night in the hotel. It was gathered that the victims were asleep when the inferno started from a faulty air conditioner. .


It was learnt that the victims were trapped for several minutes before they were rescued from the room. They sustained first-degree burns. They were rushed to Gbagada General Hospital.

Last Saturday, Roli died at 4am and was buried at Atan Cemetery in Yaba. On Sunday, news broke that Linda, who had been in coma for six days, had also died. This is heartbreaking for their families, may God rest their souls.

     Pastor Paul Adefarasin, senior pastor of House On the Rock church has paid tribute to the late gospel Singer Eric Arubayi who passed away on the 11th of February 2017. He took to his Facebook page and posted; "For a week now we've suffered the colossal loss of one of the greatest gifted son of the House On the Rock Eric Arubayi. Eric was a soul-stirring worshipper with an intense zeal for the Lord,  and though we sorrow we don't sorrow as those with no hope. We will certainly see Eric with Jesus again, we celebrate the life he lived and the legacy he leaves behind. I'm convinced Eric is walking the streets of gold, singing with the angels worshipping our one true king. We are warmly consoled by the fact that he's in a much better place, with the other saints of the gospel where no pain can reach him. Let us remember his lovely wife Chinonso and their adorable son Jayden in our prayers, that the almighty God will grant them the grace to bear this
