''My degree is not going up with me to heaven''- Read the chilling Whatsapp status of ATBU Bauchi student moments before she died

The Whatsapp status of Salamat, a 200 level student of the department of Chemistry Education who was killed alongside four others when a pedestrian bridge at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU), Gubi Campus, collapsed on Monday night August 5th during a heavy downpour, suggests that she had a premonition about her death.



A screengrab of the Whatsapp status shared online by her friends, Salamat made reference to going to heaven and sleeping peacefully. Salamat and some of her colleagues were reading in a classroom at about 10pm when they decided to hurry back to the hostel as the weather became windy.



Just before going to use the pedestrian bridge that caused her to drown, Salamat updated her Whatsapp status. In her words




My degree will not go up with me to heaven. Therefore, I will not come and kill myself over school. If I don't know it by 11.30pm, I am resting my head peacefully on my pillow and going to sleep'' she wrote



An hour later, she died.
