A woman was killed in Anambra State on Saturday after some men tried to rape her and she fought back, reports say.

The woman whose name was not released was a final year Guidance and Counselling student of the Nwafor Orizu College of Education, Nsugbe, Anambra State and was the latest victim of a series of rapes said to have become a routine at the college in the past few months.

The Provost of the college, Clara Obiagwu, didn’t comment on the incident instead she reportedly told reporters to stay clear.

“Stay off our college until you are invited. Did you contact me before nosing around my college? I have told you, don’t report about my college,’’ she told reporters.

The men have not been caught.

The Punch reports:

The student was said to be an indigene of Obeledu in Anaocha Local Government of the state.

Her body was found near the school chapel not far from the lecturers’ quarters.

The Public Relations Officer of the College, Mr. Willy Chukwuma, however said the incident did not occur on the campus.

The Anambra State University was last month shut down after students took to the street to protest the killing of a female student by armed robbers that invaded a female hostel.
