Controversy currently surrounds the untimely death of a vibrant young man who took his girlfriend that is currently at large to an hotel in Lagos for a s*xual encounter.
There has been anxiety at the Jonaith Hotel and Suites in the Ajah area of Lagos State after a 24-year-old guest, identified as Michael Afeso, was found dead in his room, according to the Punch.
It was learnt that the deceased’s girlfriend, who had stayed with him on Friday evening, was sighted in the early hours of Saturday. She was, however, said to have fled the hotel before the arrival of policemen from the Ajah division, who later took the corpse to a mortuary. It was initially assumed that the young man passed away after hot pleasure sessions.
A correspondent gathered that Michael, an indigene of Akoko Edo, Edo State, had checked into a room in the hotel on Friday and had enjoyed some bottles of beer with a friend, identified as Abass
It was learnt that Abass left the deceased in the company with a lady, whom the latter had sent for. The corpse of the victim was said to have been discovered by one of the hotel workers, who had gone to his room at checkout.
PUNCH Metro learnt from a relative of the deceased, Olufemi Oladejo, that the family was notified by one of Michael’s friends.
Oladejo said:
“When we got there, the management of the hotel told us they found the girl in their CCTV tip-toeing out.
“When we challenged them on why they did not stop her since they both checked in together, they changed the story and said the video was of another room and that it had nothing to do with the case.
“The hotel management said one Abass, who was their customer, reserved the room for Michael. We were told that they both took some bottles of beer before Abass left. They said Michael was alone in his room before they saw his corpse.”
The victim’s father, Abraham, explained that he was expecting his son to send him some money for upkeep and a project, when he was told he had died. The family is currently suspecting foul play in his death even when an autopsy result revealed he died of hypertension and heart attack.
