Timothy Adegoke: I have not been mentally stable since his murder - Wife

Bolatito Adegoke, wife of Timothy Adegoke, the late Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) postgraduate student, Timothy Adegoke has revealed that since the death of her husband in November, 2021, she has not been mentally stable.

Bolatito also confessed that she almost lost hope of getting justice for her late husband.

She however stated that the death sentence on his killers restored it.

Timothy Adegoke had lodged in the Hilton Hotels and Resort, Ile-Ife, Osun State owned by Dr. Rahmon Adedoyin before he was murdered.

On Tuesday, the Chief Judge of Osun State, Justice Oyebola Adepele Ojo convicted and sentenced Adedoyin, the hotel’s manager Adeniyi Aderogba, and its supervisor Oyetunde Kazeem to death by hanging for the murder.

The hotel’s receptionist Adesola Adedeji bagged two years imprisonment for altering receipts, while three other defendants were discharged and acquitted.

Reacting to the judgment, Adegoke said that the murder tested her faith in God, but that the judgment restored it and gave her family relief.

“I am very glad over the judgment of the court on those who killed my husband. God has given us, the family of Adegoke, succor to rejoice. I had lost hope in justice and I doubted the existence of God, but my faith in him has been rekindled.

“Since the death of my husband, I have not been mentally stable but with the judgment of the court, I am happy and glad.”
