Okereke was said to have told the police that the suspect could not explain how the woman died.“When the Divisional Police Officer, Onipanu Police Division, Sangobiyi Johnson, got the report, he led his men to the hospital where the suspect was promptly arrested,” the PPRO said.
Oyeyemi, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, explained that the suspect claimed to have met Monsurat last month in a bus at Ketu, Lagos State, where they exchanged phone numbers.He said, “The suspect told the police that he invited her to the house of his friend in Ota where the deceased slumped and died shortly after they had sex.
“The police contacted Monsurat’s husband, Lamidi Idowu, who is a commercial bus driver.”Oyeyemi said Lamidi told the police that he left his wife in the house hale and hearty while going to work, wondering what might have led to her untimely death.
