LAGOS—A Police Sergeant, Jude Nwandudu, who slumped in a hotel in Iju area of Lagos State, weekend, has died at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH, where he was rushed to.
Preliminary investigation revealed that
the late Nwandudu, a father of four,
went to the hotel in the company of the
wife of an unnamed policeman, who
lives in the same barracks with him, to
unwind for the just-concluded Easter
celebrations.
However, tragedy struck when, after
relaxing with his lover, Nwandudu
slipped and fell in the bathroom while
having a shower. He hit his head on the
bath tub and collapsed. His lover raised
the alarm that attracted members of
staff of the hotel.
Report said Nwandudu, who was
attached to the Special Anti-Robbery
Squad, SARS, Ikeja, was rushed to a
nearby hospital, from where he was
transferred to LUTH, where he died.
His lover, as gathered, had been invited
for questioning but was later released.
Widow's a Sergeant, too
Meanwhile, hell was said to have been
let loose as the deceased's widow, also a
Police Sergeant, insisted that her late
husband's lover be held responsible for
his death.
The latter's visibly angry husband, as
gathered, had also asked her to pack out
of his house for bringing shame to the
family.
A neighbour, who spoke on condition of
anonymity, said: "Nwandudu was
recently transferred from Kogi State
Police Command to SARS. It is
unfortunate he died."
There were rumours
It was also gathered that there were
rumours earlier about a clandestine
relationship between the deceased and
the neighbour's wife.
However, they both denied it. It almost
resulted into a fight between the
woman's husband, who is a Corporal,
and the deceased.
Some people even advised the Corporal
to report the matter to the Provost since
the deceased was senior to him in rank.
A neighbour said: "Now that he is dead,
some people are attributing it to magun
(charm). The Corporal has since chased
his wife away."
Contacted, Lagos State Police Public
Relations Officer, Dolapo Badmus, a
Superintendent, promised to get back to
this reporter. But at press time, she was
yet to get in touch.
