A 24-year-old student of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), has recounted how he narrowly escaped death at an off-campus party that reportedly claimed the lives of four students in Nsukka, Enugu State.
The survivor, an Art Education student, said he lost consciousness after one of the party participants vomited. He reportedly regained consciousness several hours later, only to discover that his friends were lying motionless on the floor.
Recounting the incident, the student disclosed that the party was held at the residence of the host in Hilltop, Nsukka, with approximately 10 people in attendance.
He explained that the host had purchased two bottles of alcoholic drinks, identified as Magic Moment and Best, which were shared among the participants.
According to him, no one smoked or took drugs during the gathering, insisting that alcohol was the only substance consumed.

“We didn’t smoke, and there was no drug there. We took only alcohol. We had just two bottles for about 10 people, so the quantity each person drank was very little, not even up to a quarter of a party cup,” he said.
The survivor further described the experience as his first encounter with such a frightening reaction to alcohol, adding that he had resolved never to consume alcohol again.
“This was the first time I took alcohol and experienced such a condition. I think this will be the last time I will ever take alcohol,” he added.
The incident has raised concerns over the mysterious circumstances surrounding the deaths of the four UNN students, with investigations expected to establish what led to the tragedy.
