UK Court Hears Nigerian Student Was Killed After Dispute Over Fake Rolex

UK Court Hears Nigerian Student Was Killed After Dispute Over Fake Rolex

A UK court has heard that Nigerian student Khaleed Oladipo died after he was allegedly attacked in Leicester following a dispute over money connected to a fake Rolex watch. Prosecutors said Oladipo, a De Montfort University student, had known fellow student Harper Dennis through online gaming. Their friendship reportedly deteriorated after Dennis was unable to sell a watch allegedly supplied by Oladipo. Financial transfers, threatening calls and messages were presented as evidence of the dispute. Dennis is accused of attacking Oladipo on Oxford Street on 3 February 2026. He denies murder, possession of a bladed article and failing to provide the access code to his phone, maintaining that he acted in self-defence. The trial at Leicester Crown Court is continuing.

It is especially sad that both people mentioned were students, and a dispute now sits alongside the loss of a young life.

The allegation is serious, but the court process should be allowed to establish responsibility rather than social media deciding everything early.

Cases like this underline the value of stepping away from money disputes and involving campus security or police before tempers rise.
