Friends and acquaintances are mourning the final year Abia State University Uturu Medicine and Surgery student, Favour Okpanku.
LIB reported that Favour and two other medical students died in an auto crash which occurred at the Okigwe axis of the Enugu-Umuahia Expressway on Thursday, March 21, 2024.
The victims were returning to Aba from the school’s induction of medical students.
Two others were injured and are battling for their lives now in the hospital while one miraculously survived.
“If I don’t know you or have any connections with you is a different thing. You were one of my junior students back then in secondary school that I will send a message. Without exchange of words you will humbly respond to it,” one Onyeukwu Amarachi wrote.
“The last time we saw during your brother’s child dedication I was so glad and happy that you have grown into a full adult. Then I asked you what are you studying in school. You said mama Medicine and Surgery. I shouted wow see our baby doctor favour.
“You smiled. Back then I used to know you to be a very smart and intelligent young woman. When you started your perfume business you contacted me and I gave my reviews and also helped you to promote your brand through my social handles.
“Now that you are almost done with school and the enemy came and snatched you away from us. Waking up this early morning to see your pictures flying up and down on the internet broke my heart. Am sorry my girl. This is sad. Even though we don’t talk everyday. You were one of my favorite girls. And I love you from heart. Rip Dr Favor Okpanku. Am broken.”

Final video shared by ABSU medical student from a car moments before she died in the same car emerges
The last video posted by Favour Okpanku from the car where she and two other ABSU medical students met their demise has emerged.
Favour, a medicine and surgery student from Abia State University, suffered a fatal car accident on Thursday, March 21, and died alongside two of her colleagues (read here). One has been identified as a student fondly called Ebube Sir Adii.
They had reportedly attended their senior colleagues’ induction ceremony at Abia State University, Uturu, on Thursday and were going back to the medical school in Aba when they were involved in a car accident.
Moments before the fatal accident, Favour had recorded a video from within the ill-fated car and posted it on her stories.
The video shows her sitting in the car with red leather seats.
Sadly, moments later, the car crashed into the bush and videos from the scene of the accident show the mangled remains of the car with its red leather seats.
Friends and colleagues have gone on Facebook to mourn the three deceased medical students.
