I see no reason to live, cries mother of Nigerian student murdered in Ghana

Hundreds of Nigerians on Wednesday marched to the Consulate General of Ghana office located in Ikeja, Lagos State to register their displeasure over the brutal killing of a Nigerian student, Godwin Ayogu.
The deceased, who was schooling in Ghana, was believed to have been murdered by his roommate in the school.
The peaceful protest was organized by Coalitions of Civil Liberty Organisation.
According to the group, the reason for the protest was to draw the attention of the High Commission to the manner the case was being handled by the Ghanaian Police.
The grieving mother of the boy, Gladys Ayogu, who was among the protesters, cried bitterly and said: “It was my late son’s roommate who first called to inform me about the death of my son, but I was suspicious of that call.
“My pain is that my first child was killed because of mere money. This is why we are asking for justice. As I am standing here, I’m nothing but a corpse! I see no reason to live!
“Godwin is the strength of my youth! I laboured to raise him to that stage. Where do you expect me to start from now?
“Ayogu was killed a year before he could complete his programme at the university. We took him there when his chemistry result was withheld in Nigeria. And now the High Commission is telling me they are still working on the death of my son.”
The group in their protest letter, submitted to the Deputy Consular-General, Isaac Essilifie, indicated that the Ghanaian Government had been given two weeks to fish out killers of Ayogu and prosecute the alleged perpetrators, failing which there would be another round of protest.
Comrade Dandy Eze of Path of Peace Initiatives, said: “I believe the University authority knows the killers and their accomplices, but yet they refused to prosecute them. We want justice for the death of the innocent boy who was killed in his prime.”
Eze blamed the Nigerian Government for the death of the deceased, stressing that if the Nigerian educational sector had been developed, no parent would be forced to send their children out of the country to study.
He added: “If our educational sector is okay, what would prompt parents to send their kids to foreign land, where they are being killed like chickens?”
Comrade Kenny Bakare of the Civil Liberty Organisation said: “What happened in Ghana is a serious issue, which needed to be sorted out between the two countries.”
Bakare continued: “If the young boy happened to be alive today, what contributions do you think this boy would have brought to Nigeria? We learnt that Ghana’s motto is: ‘Justice and Freedom’. And that is what we are demanding: Justice!”
Isaac Essilifie said the Ghanaian Government was working on the matter and would leave no stone unturned to unravel the murder and prosecute the killers of the boy.
He added: “Nigeria and Ghana have good working relationship. We will not do anything as a country to mar the friendship that exists between us.”
Godwin Ayogu was allegedly murdered by his roommate, Abatsi Gwesu, alias Enay, at the University of Cape Coast, Ghana.
The 300-level Economics student was stabbed to death by his attackers, who tied his hands and feet, disemboweled him and later dropped his corpse in front of his hostel, in the seaside of their main University.
It was alleged that his money was collected from him for safe keeping by Gwesu, a 400-level music student.
But up till the night of his murder, Ayogu was yet to pay his school fees because his roommate allegedly refused to return his money.
