Female Banker Dies In Bed With Lover In Imo State

A female banker, Mrs. Adejoke Ayeola of  Iperu Remo in Ogun State and her lover, Mr. Wilson Ugwunna perished during lovemaking at Eziudo community in Ezinihitte, Mbaise Local Government Area of Imo State.

 
Wilson, 42, had two children while his lover, who was 44 years old, was a mother of two children. She was said to have been married to a traditional ruler in Ogun State.


According to Sunday Trust, the lovers had returned from Lagos on Saturday, April 26, 2014 and went to bed, but were not seen throughout the following day, a development that drew the attention of Wilson's family members.


When the door to the room where the lovers slept was forced open, Adejoke's body had started decomposing while her lover was in deep coma.

Speaking to our reporter, indigenes of Eziudo community, who expressed surprise at the incident, said they strongly believed it was caused by magun, a Yoruba charm usually set against a woman suspected of illicit affairs. The practice is common in Yorubaland.

The traditional ruler of Eziudo community, His Royal Majesty, Eze Desmond Oguguo, who confirmed the incident during an exclusive interview with our reporter in his palace, recalled that on Saturday, April 26, Wilson, who claimed to have returned from Malaysia, brought a Yoruba lady home from Lagos and introduced her as his future wife. This was despite the fact that he already had a wife and two children who he reportedly abandoned for at least three years.

He described Wilson's action as grossly shameful.
 

"The way young people of these days behave is very embarrassing. They don't respect themselves, they don't respect anybody, and they don't have the fear of God. They do whatever they like. They should be honest to themselves and live honest lives. It is quite unfortunate. It was learnt that Wilson's children are currently staying with his mother in Owerri, the Imo State capital. Such boy is uncontrollable.

Even his mother, who is in Owerri, has not visited home since the incident. If the boy had good manners, his mother would have rushed home.
 


Eze Oguguo said the matter was reported to the police who deposited the woman's corpse in the hospital mortuary while Wilson, who was still in coma, was taken to the hospital for medical attention, but he later died.

Also speaking to our reporter, a member of the community disclosed that the lady's husband came and took her corpse to Yorubaland. 


"Her eyes were bulging out of the sockets, her face was swollen, while her tongue was gushing out. She looked like a dragon," he said, adding that he could not bear the sight of the lady when her body was being removed.

The late banker's husband had reportedly said that the only condition for Wilson to live was if he could walk to the mortuary to see the woman's corpse. 

It was further gathered that the lady, who worked in a new generation bank, had lied to her husband that she was attending a meeting in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital while she went to Mbaise with her lover. 

But the medical director of Obizie People Medical Centre, where Wilson was rushed to for medical attention, Dr. Ohanyere Alex Chibuike, said the rumour about magun was baseless. He said the real cause of their deaths was the carbon monoxide they inhaled from a generating set throughout the night, explaining that he conducted tests on the deceased.  


"I repeated the tests and there was nothing suggesting that any other damage was done to his body,''


He, however, said that members of the deceased's family were yet to pay the hospital bill and collect his corpse for burial. 

The commissioner of police, Imo State command, Mr. Abdulmaheed Ali confirmed the incident.
