The incoming president of the Oxford Union has been accused of celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

George Abaraonye allegedly shared comments making light of Kirk's death shortly after he was struck in the neck by a single bullet while speaking about mass shootings at a university campus in Utah.

The Telegraph claims to have seen messages supposedly sent by Abaraonye, which have also been shared on social media.

One, said to have been sent on Whatsapp, reads: 'Charlie Kirk got shot, let's f***ing go'. Another message, which the Telegraph claims was posted by Abaraonye on Instagram, says: 'Charlie Kirk got shot loool'.

The Oxford student's Instagram account has been made private, preventing anyone from viewing his posts on the platform. It is also unclear whether the Whatsapp account that appeared to share the messages belongs to Abaraonye.
