“I know that the military is well trained in the art of investigation.

“On that day , a call came into her phone which she picked.

“But from the way they spoke, I knew that the caller must be a senior officer calling her to come to the Airforce base.

“She left reluctantly and I offered to drop her off, one hour later, I saw online that something serious has happened to her.

“I couldn’t believe that somebody I just dropped off is dead.” she said.

On her part, the mother of Tolulope narrated  how she gave birth to her, describing her daughter as a special child who engaged in fasting and praying as a hobby.
