A 23-year-old student of the Nigerian Law School, Faith Ajoke Alayande, who d!ed after allegedly falling from the rooftop of a four-storey hostel building at the institution’s campus in Victoria Island, Lagos, shared an happy, upbeat video seemingly indicating she was looking forward to becoming a lawyer.

LIB earlier reported that the deceased was found d3ad within the hostel premises on Friday, August 7, 2026 by another student, who alerted the Chief Matron of the Law School.

A video posted six days ago on her Instagram handle and captioned: “86 days to Bar Finals 100%” shows her smiling warmly as she strolls along an empty road.

According to a report shared by security analyst, Zagazola Makama, upon receiving the report, the matron proceeded to the scene, where the deceased was found lying on the ground within the hostel premises.

The matron reported the incident at the Victoria Island Police Division at about 6:30am.

The spokesperson for the command, Abimbola Adebisi, confirmed the incident.

According to the PPRO, the incident was reported to the police after the deceased was found unresponsive in the hostel premises on Friday.

Adebisi noted that the matron of the institution reported the matter and disclosed that another student and a relative reportedly found a suicide note written by the deceased student, prompting them to search for her.

She said that before they could locate her, she had allegedly jumped from the rooftop of the four-storey hostel building.

“I can confirm the incident. The deceased reportedly wrote a suicide note and, before her hostel mate and a relative could locate her, she jumped from the rooftop of a four-storey building,” Adebisi said.

“The matron of the hostel reported the incident, prompting police operatives to visit the scene. Her body has been evacuated to a morgue for preservation.”

The PPRO added that an investigation was ongoing into the incident.
