Grace was until her death a National Diploma student of Oyo State Polytechnic, Saki.
PerSecondNews recalls that 18-year old Barakat Bello and 29-year old Azeezat Shomuyiwa were also murdered in Akinyele area of the city in May.
According to sources, the rapists had stormed the church mission house of Grace’s parents in the afternoon, possibly when occupants had gone out to carry out their dastardly act.
She was stabbed after been raped.
Commenting on the incident, the Police spokesman in the state, DSP Olugbenga Fadeyi, said a team of detectives had begun investigation.
