There was confusion at Eziudo community in Ezinihitte in Mbaise Local
Government Area of Imo State when a 44 years old female banker, Mrs.
Adejoke Ayeola who is from Iperu Remo in Ogun State and her 42 years old
lover, Mr. Wilson Ugwunna died during lovemaking.
According to report, Wilson had two children while his lover, Adejoke
was a mother of two children and she was said to have been married to a
traditional ruler in Ogun State.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,’’ the
medical director said.
He, however, said that
members of the deceased’s family were yet to pay the hospital bill and
collect his corpse for burial. 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. www.nepicity.com gathered from Sunday trust that 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.
An
indigene of Eziudo community, in an interview with 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. 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. Speaking further, Eze Oguguo warned young men against
anti-social activities, saying, “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,” the traditional ruler added. The commissioner
of police, Imo State command, Mr. Abdulmaheed Ali confirmed the
incident.
