A yet to be identified man was said to have taken Glory who is a housewife, to Kings of Queens Hotel located at 11, Otunba Oladokun Street, Lanre Bus Stop, Igando, Lagos State. They were having fun when the unfortunate incident happened.
The man was said to have abandoned her corpse in the room they lodged and fled without informing the hotel’s management about what happened.
What could have caused her death was not yet known because the autopsy report is not yet out.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Ngozi Braide, described Glory’s death as sudden and unnatural.
She said her body has been deposited at the mortuary for autopsy, while the police have since commenced investigation into the matter.
According to the hotel’s manager identified as Saliu, the woman came to the hotel with the young man, booked a room and went in.
“After staying for several hours in the room the man came out and told the security men that he wanted to buy food outside and he did not return to the hotel,” he said.
Saliu said there was no physical injury on the woman and therefore he could not explain what really caused her death.
Also confirming the incident, owner of the hotel, Otunba Richard Oladokun, expressed shock over what happened.
He said he reported the matter at the Igando Police Station after he was informed about what happened on phone by his manager.
According to him, he came with the police to the hotel and found the woman lying dead on the bed and the police took away her corpse to the mortuary.
Oladokun said the young man who brought the woman to the hotel initially picked his calls and promised to come back but did not. His phone has been switched off ever since.
As it stands, no one has been able to trace the husband or relatives of the deceased. The man in whose company she came to the hotel where she met her untimely death is also nowhere to be found.
Police investigation continue on the matter.
