The police in Lagos have arrested a man, Akodogbo
Doheto, in connection with the death of a 57-year-old
woman, who allegedly died in his house after the two had a
sexual affair.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the incident occurred on Salu
Street in the Badagry area of Lagos. And according to
police sources the victim, Bonu Fiaret, who was said to be
divorced, was working as a nurse in a government hospital
in the area.
It was learnt that 60-year-old Doheto, who hails from
Badagry, had been dating Fiaret for about two years before
her sudden death. The matter was reported at the Badagry
Police Division.
Fiaret was discovered dead in Doheto’s one-room
apartment on the morning of January 3, the police
arrested the suspect.
In his statement to the police, Doheto explained that the
woman died in his apartment after they both had a sex on
the fateful Friday evening.
He, however, added that he was not responsible for the
woman’s death. Doheto explained that his lover was
hypertensive, which could have led to her sudden death.
He said:
“We were lovers. She came to my house on January
2 at about 8.30pm. I have known her for about two
years now. We attended a carnival in the area that
evening.
When we came back, we had just one round of sex,
after which we both slept on the bed, and there was
no problem. The following morning, I tried waking her
up, but there was no response. I observed that her
body was stiff. I raised the alarm.
That was how we found out that she was dead. I am
not responsible for her death. She was hypertensive
and it might be her condition that caused her sudden
death. I work as an okada rider. I am married and
have one child, but my wife does not stay with me.”
Police however says that some of the victim’s relatives
were, however, alleging that Fiaret was killed after the sex.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the woman’s corpse had been
deposited at a private mortuary in the area, while an
autopsy was also being awaited.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP
Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident. He added that the
case had been transferred to the State Criminal
Investigations Department, Yaba, for further investigation.
He said, “The case is now with the SCID, where the police
are conducting further investigation.” CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
