A 57-year- old woman, Bonu Fiaret, allegedly died
in her lover’s apartment on Friday, January 2, in
Badagry, Lagos.
The deceased was reportedly having an affair with
a certain Akodogbo, in whose house she gave up
the ghost.
The lovers, who parted ways several months back
because of the victim’s health condition, resumed
their romance after meeting at a community
carnival.
From the carnival, the pair later went to
Akodogbo’s one-room apartment, where Bonu
slept off. Akodogbo would later wake up to
discover the lifeless body of his lover.
Meanwhile, the 60-year-old lover, Akodogbo while
giving in his account of events, said:
“We have
been lovers for more than two years, but we had
to end the relationship because of her health
condition. She is hypertensive.”
“But we met during the carnival in Badagry and
we discussed. We spent time together and had a
lot of fun together at the carnival.
Like school
children, the old flame was rekindled and we
decided to continue the affair. She agreed to
spend the night at my place.”
“By the time I woke up in the morning, I tried to
wake her up, but she did not move; her body had
already become lifeless and stiff. I was alarmed
and alerted my neighbours.”
“They said this was beyond them and that the
police needs to be involved. That was how the
police was contracted. I did not kill her.”
The Lagos State Police spokesperson, Kenneth
Nwosu, confirmed the incident, saying that
investigation into the case was still ongoing.
