The false alarm led to the stampede that injured over 40 students and led to the death of Olukoyi who were all rushing to exit the viewing center, during the Liverpool vs Barcelona match.
Gbenga allegedly died after the hospital he was rushed to rejected him due to the inability of those who took him there to make an initial deposit for his treatment. This is definitely bad news for his friends and family. RIP!
