THE decomposing remains of two
lovers, simply identified as Udogi Eguke and Ese, were found on Sunday, days
after they died in mysterious circumstances in their Makolomi Street apartment
of Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State.
The house owner, Chief Alfred
Onavwa, who shares the top floor of the one-storey building with one of the
deceased, confirmed the incident.
He said having been contacted on the
absence of one of the deceased by neighbours, he called his line only to
realize that his mobile phone was ringing upstairs.
He explained further: “On getting
close to the door of the private stairway leading to their apartment, I noticed
that it was locked from inside, with a stench oozing out.
“On realizing this, I personally
invited the police who came and broke the door only to discover their
decomposing bodies.
“Their remains were later deposited
in the mortuary and I was made to understand that investigation into the matter
was ongoing.
“Even the Ughelli Divisional Police
Officer was here to see things for himself.”
Meanwhile, findings revealed that
the couple, whose wedding was slated for November 22, had started preparation,
with invitation cards already sent out to intending guests.
When contacted for comments, Ughelli
Divisional Police Officer, Samuel Musa, neither debunked nor confirmed the
incident.
He directed all comments on the
matter to the state Police Public Relation Officer, Deputy Superintendent of
Police, Celestina Kalu.
However, at press time, calls and
messages to her phone were yet to be replied.
