The yet to be identified man quietly abandoned her corpse in the room they lodged and fled without informing the hotel’s management about what happened.
The incident happened at Kings of Queens Hotel located at 11, Otunba Oladokun Street, Lanre Bus Stop, Igando, Lagos State.
According to Police sources, the body parts of the late Glory were intact against widespread rumours that some parts were missing. Glory, as gathered, slumped during love making. Rather than rushing her to the hospital, the unidentified young man reportedly sneaked out of the room, abandoning her.
A staff of the hotel who spoke on condition of anonymity told Vanguard that the lovers walked into the hotel where they booked a room last Friday. About two hours later, the young man was said to have walked out, informing the receptionist that he was going to get something outside.
Apprehension reportedly set in after Glory was discovered lying stone dead by one of the room service attendants, who raised alarm that alerted the hotel manager simply identified as Saliu.
The owner of the hotel, Otunba Richard Oladokun, who also confirmed the incident, expressed shock over what happened. He said he was informed about what happened on phone by his manager and he went to the police station at Igando and reported the matter.
He said 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 what surprised him most was that the young man who brought the woman to the hotel initially picked his calls and promised to come back but did not. Rather, he later switched off his phone and no one has been able to contact him again since the incident happened.
Nobody has been able to contact the woman’s husband or relatives as there is no address to trace them at the time of this report.
Confirming the incident, spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, Ngozi Braide, said: “About 0810 hours, one Glory, a lodger at the Kings of Queen Hotel was found dead in one of the hotel rooms. The corpse has been deposited at the Isolo General Hospital for autopsy.”
Police sources said effort was still on to arrest the deceased’s lover.
