‘Blood on Hostel’s Floors;’ LASU Student’s Mother Beat, Strip Daughter’s Roommate In Hall Raid

▪️Students’ Union talks tough as mother in ‘a fit of fury’ lands in Police net, video goes viral

It started with a disagreement between two students. It ended with blood on hostel floors, torn clothes, and a 300-level Nursing student fighting for justice in a hospital bed.

At the Lagos State University College of Medicine, what should have been a minor quarrel between classmates exploded into violence on Thursday, after a mother stormed into the hostel in what witnesses described as “a fit of fury.”

The victim, Adebayo Oluwatumininu, a 300-level Nursing student, was identified by the Lagos State University Students’ Union as the one who was brutally attacked. Her alleged attacker: the mother of Hassan Temiloluwa, a Physiotherapy student.

According to the Students’ Union, the trouble began when Hassan had a disagreement with Oluwatumininu and reported it to her mother. Hours later, that mother arrived on campus. Not to talk. Not to mediate. But to fight.

Video clips now circulating online show the woman descending on the hapless student. She beat Oluwatumininu mercilessly, tore her clothes, and inflicted severe injuries across her body while other students watched in shock.

The footage is raw and painful. A mother, driven by rage, throwing punches at a young woman old enough to be her daughter. A nursing student, trained to heal others, left bleeding and exposed in her own hostel.

“She sustained injury to her eye, and other parts of her body,” the LASU Students’ Union confirmed in a statement. The eye injury was severe enough that Oluwatumininu had to be rushed to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, LASUTH, for emergency medical assessment and treatment.

“Imagine it. A student who spends her days learning how to save lives, now a patient herself. Bandages where there should be textbooks. Pain where there should be lectures. Fear where there should be safety,” a female student who witnessed the incident told NOP NIGERIA after her anonymity was guaranteed.

The attack has left the LASU College of Medicine community reeling. Parents send their children to school to learn, not to be assaulted. Hostels are supposed to be safe spaces, not battlegrounds for adult grievances.

The Students’ Union said the woman did not stop at beating. She also made threats, turning a campus disagreement into what they called a case of “physical assault and intimidation.”

By Friday, the mother of Hassan Temiloluwa had been taken into police custody. The Union confirmed she is expected to be arraigned in court over the allegations.

For Oluwatumininu, the road to recovery has just begun. Physical wounds may heal. But the trauma of being attacked, stripped, and humiliated in front of peers in the place she calls home will linger.

Students are now asking hard questions: How did an adult gain access to the hostel to commit such violence? What protection exists for students when disagreements escalate beyond the classroom? And who speaks for a young woman whose only mistake was having a dispute?

LASU authorities have yet to release an official statement. But across campus, one sentence keeps repeating among students: “This could have been me.” A mother’s rage has left a student in hospital, a community in shock, and a university forced to confront how far fury can go when it walks through the school gates.
