Six UNN Students found dead in apartment a day after graduation
Six students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), Enugu State, have reportedly been found dead in an apartment around the Hilltop axis of the university community, barely a day after their graduation.
The incident, which occurred in the early hours of Thursday, November 12, 2026, has thrown the university community into mourning and sparked panic among students and residents.
The victims were said to have graduated on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, turning what should have been a period of celebration into tragedy.
However, reports have given conflicting figures on the number of victims, with some putting the death toll at seven, while others reported six, comprising five females and one male.
The circumstances surrounding their deaths remained unclear as of the time of filing this report.
Efforts to reach the Enugu State Police Public Relations Officer, Daniel Ndukwe, for comments were unsuccessful, as calls placed to his telephone did not receive a response.
Meanwhile, the incident has caused widespread anxiety in the Hilltop area and across the university community, with students and residents seeking answers over the deaths of the young graduates.
