Two persons, a man and a woman, died in different parts of Osogbo, Osun State during sexual intercourse with separate partners.
In
the first incident, a 25-year-old housewife, identified as Damilola,
died at her lover’s house in Osogbo, during a marathon sex.
But the man, whose identity could not be ascertained, also died while having sex with a prostitute at a brothel in Osogbo.
Damilola died last Wednesday after complaining of acute stomach ache in
her lover’s house. Sources hinted that the deceased lived with her
husband in Lagos State before they separated.
It was learnt she
had a quarrel with her husband who refused to forgive her of her sin.
Speaking on the incident, a top police officer, who preferred anonymity,
disclosed that the deceased had earlier gone to Oye-Ekiti and Ifaki-
Ekiti to stay with her in-laws and parents while trying to resolve the
misunderstanding with her husband.
According to him, Damilola told her parents she was going to Osogbo for a wedding ceremony.
But at Osogbo, it was learnt that the deceased first spent some days
with a lover before going to the house of another lover where she died. The police said they were already investigating circumstances surrounding the woman’s death.
The
state Commissioner of Police, Mr Kola Sodipo, confirmed Damilola’s
death. He promised that at the end of the day, the public would be
informed on what actually went wrong. Meanwhile, sex workers at a
brothel popularly called Morak at Ago-Wande area of Osogbo fled
following the death of a customer.
The cause of the man’s death
was unknown at press time but it was gathered that he had sexual
intercourse with one of the prostitutes on an empty stomach.
Sources
said the man gave up the ghost after the third round because he was
weak and exhausted. The development, however, made occupants of the
brothel to flee fear of being arrested by the police.
A shop
owner near the brothel, who preferred anonymity, said it was unfortunate
that the man killed himself by not having enough food in his stomach
before going to sex workers.
He said: “No one could say the
exact time the incident occurred, but many residents of the
neighbourhood got wind of the man’s death when they noticed that
inhabitants of a storey-building which houses the prostitutes had
deserted the place.
“I was in my shop late that day and before I left, many vehicles were parked near the brothel, but that did not raise concern.
“When I resumed next morning, I noticed that the brothel was virtually
empty. There was no sign of life there at all. The entrance door was
closed but the door to the bar was slightly opened. Unknown to some of
us, some of the occupants of the house confided in their friends about
what happened before they ran away.
“Later, around noon,
policemen came and evacuated the body of the man. We were told his wife
was among those that came with the police when the body was evacuated.
But no one could identify the man in our area.
His car was also
taken away by the people that came with the police.” Shodipo also
confirmed the incident. He promised that the police would get to the
root of the matter.
