Ekiti university student flogs colleague in viral video

The management of the Bamidele Olumilua University of Education Science and Technology Ikere-Ekiti (BOUESTI) has begun a probe into a viral video of a female student flogging her colleague.

On Monday, a clip circulated on X which captured the student flogging her colleague with a cane while shouting at her.

In the footage, the perpetrator is heard screaming at the victim saying “I want to see you fight back. You called me a bastard? Is it because I have kept silent? I must draw blood from you today and no one can stop me”.

The victim is also seen in the video running to safety while being chased by her attacker.

The video also captured several individuals present during the assault, yet no one attempted to intervene.
