We Mourn SP Adikwu

Today is an incredibly sad day for all as St. Francis College Otukpo Old Boys Association announces the passing of a great and committed member, Superintendent of Police, SP John Okoh Adikwu of 1998 set.

The 46 year old SP Adikwu lost his life in a gun battle, after leading the police team that gallantly tried to repel the deadly robbery attack on four banks in Otukpo on Friday 20th October 2023. Until his death, he was the Divisional Police Office (DPO) for Otukpo.

May God be merciful to him and reward him with eternal life. We also pray for his family that God may grant them the fortitude to cope with and bear this irreplaceable loss. 

May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace. Amen. 🙏

A Requiem Mass shall be held in his honour in the College Chapel on 2nd November 2023.
