According to his close friend, Olugbenro Afowobi. Yinka who while alive was studying Fisheries and Aquaculture said the late Khalid complained of mere neck pain before he was rushed to the hospital where he died
In his words,
‘its really a terrible news. I still chatted with him on Facebook a few hours before they announced his death. Khalid was a very gentle guy, humble and respectful. He was my school son. As a matter of that the morning he died, he still called his friend, Oyetakin Wole and he was fine’.
‘the student Union is making attempts to visit his parents for condolences. His elder brother put a call through to us that his mother has been moved down to their home town in Abeokuta because she couldnt bare the oss and she’s in shock’.
