The 21-year-old, who was a 300-level student of the Department of European Studies died on Monday July 27,2020 while operating a machine at soap-making factory, Expand Global Industries Limited, Oluyole, Ibadan. His siblings, including Adesewa were reduced to tears, and couldn’t even speak to journalists who wanted to interview them. Speaking, state chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Kayode Martins decried the exploitation of Nigerian workers by foreign companies. Meanwhile, the state government has declared that it has commenced investigations into the circumstances surrounding the death of Gbadebo. “My appeal is that the government should compel the company to show its CCTV footage so that the whole world will see how my son died,” Gbadebo said.
