A Unilag student identified as Iyabo recently got engaged and her friends decided to celebrate with her.

The party was held off campus on Sunday 30th of June 2013 , and the students-the bride to be, her cousin Funmilayo Adelowotan, friends Eniola Abiodun and Temiloluwa Osindero -left for the party from a private Hostel (Emerald) located in front of Unilag main gate.

The party went well.

Iyabo’s fiance bade the girls goodbye while his younger brother offered to give the students a lift back to school.

Sadly however, on their way back to school, they were involved in a fatal car accident along the international airport Road in Ikeja, Lagos.

A trailer lost control and hit their car, killing the driver (Iyabo’s fiance younger brother), Funmi Adelowotan ( Iyabo’s cousin) and their friend Eniola Abiodun on the spot.
The bride-to-be Iyabo and Temiloluwa survived, but were badly injured.

They are currently receiving treatment at LASUTH.

Until her death, Funmilayo Adelowotan was on a First Class CGPA of 4.71, she was fondly called ‘Miss Green’ by students and lecturers in her faculty.

She was a 200Level student of Quantitative surveying(Faculty of Environmental Science).

Eniola Abiodun was a 400 level student of Mass Communications.
