The personal driver that drove her from Abuja to Osun state said he dropped her at Igbona market at Osogbo and thereafter, dropped her at Wema bank Osogbo.
The university’s spokesman, Taoheed Alimi, who confirmed the development in a statement on Monday night, July 25, said the student was found unhurt and is receiving relevant care.
“On behalf of the management of Fountain University, Osogbo, I write to inform the general public that one of our students, Hadiza Salami who was recently declared missing has been found,” the statement read.
“Miss Salami was found unhurt, thanks to the effort of the security operatives and of course, the wide range of support received from the general public.
“While she is currently receiving all the necessary care and attention at relevant quarters for her to resume her regular activity, we want to thank the general public for the solidarity given to us.
“The management of the university, therefore, urges all to please stop any form of publicity indicating that she is still missing.
