The Ogun State Police Command has started investigation in the sudden death of a 78-year-old Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, who slumped and died on top of his lover after several rounds of sex.
The lover, Ejimo, a 30-year-old hairdresser has been arrested by the police for further question.
The police said that the scared lady hired a commercial bike rider and dumped the man’s corpse in bush path. Ejimo apparently did not want to be connected with the incident.
According to Ejimo, she and the deceased, Chief Christopher Adebayo Deru did not engaged in several rounds of sex, but only one before he began to gasp for breath and slumped. She also maintained that was the first time they would making love since they started dating six years ago.
The deceased was said to have sneaked out of his home on September 30, 2014, to meet his lover when he met his death.
A police source said: “We gathered that during the visit, the two lovers had several rounds of sex before the old collapsed on top of the lady and died.”
Deru was said to belong to PDP in Odogbolu Local Government Area of Ogun.
Ejimo further explained that since they started dating, there had never been opportunity to have sex.
Recalling that fateful day, she said: “When Baba came in to my room, he didn’t even rest at all. He quickly undressed and I also undressed myself. When I sensed he was weak, I asked him to get off me. I aided him to a couch in my room and I started fanning him with a copy of newspaper. “
Ejimo said that Deru’s condition deteriorated and he slumped. She admitted being scared and thus called her cousin, Segun, a member of Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC). Segun promised to help, but did not come, forcing her to alert a friend, named Sunday.
“Sunday took me to his sister, Mrs. Funmilayo Moyegun, a friend. I locked up his remains inside my room till dawn. When I sensed most residents were in door, I approached a co-tenant, Benjamin Friday, a commercial motorcyclist and a friend, Mrs. Funmilayo Moyegun, a photographer, to help take snapshots of the corpse, and to also, take the remains to a bush path, where it was dumped,” said Ejimo
Ejimo said Deru was a nice man who was always there for her. The mother of one, said she left her husband because he was uncaring. She said that Deru’s wife knew that they were dating.
Benjamin Friday, the commercial motorcyclist said he unaware someone had died. He explained that Ejimo came to him with Mrs. Funmilayo, asking for his help.
Friday said: “When I asked, she said she had an Uncle in her room, who was almost dying. She asked me to assist her with my motorcycle to convey him out of her room. It was when I entered her room that I saw the Baba already slumped on the floor and also, the other woman who was later identified as Funmilayo Moyegun was taking snapshots of the Baba. It dawned on me that Baba was dead.”
He said that Ejimo pleaded with him to convey the corpse on his motorcycle and dumped Deru’s remains at a bush path, which he agreed to.
Mrs. Funmilayo said: “She said I should come and take snapshots in her room. Photography is my trade. When the door of the room was opened, I saw the Baba lying on the floor. I took the snapshots as she had requested. After completing my assignment, I advised her to quickly contact the family members and relations of the Baba so as to avoid running into trouble and she agreed. I took my leave.”
A search party discovered Deru’s body after two days he went missing. A neighbour who sighted Deru going into Ejimo’s home, told the family about the man’s movment on that day.
Police spokesman, Mr. Olumuyiwa Adejobi, confirmed the arrest of the three suspects. He said investigation was ongoing, adding that a post mortem examination would soon be conducted on the corpse to ascertain the circumstances leading to the death of the deceased.
