A yet-to-be-identified male adult was feared dead in a violent clash involving some people believed to be members of rival cult groups in Osun State Polytechnic, Iree.
Multiple reliable sources among students of the polytechnic, who spoke under condition of anonymity, said the clash involved members of Eiye and Aye confraternities.
They also said four other people were injured in the clash that occurred just outside the main gate of the institution on Tuesday.
In a video shared by Lamina Omotoyosi, a Facebook user, said to have been purportedly recorded, while the incident was going on, a man wearing a white shirt was filmed hitting a man lying down with a hammer on the head, while two other people watched from a close distance.
The PUNCH further learnt that after the assailants left the scene, the deceased was rushed to a private hospital in Iree, but was rejected by the facility.
It was also gathered that he gave up the ghost while he was being rushed to another hospital in Osogbo.
Apart from him, an eyewitness said four other people believed to be students were also injured in the fracas.
