A middle-aged man, identified as Mr. Ogadinma Chukwu, has reportedly
died in Aba, Abia State while having sex with a prostitute (name
unknown) in one of the popular brothels on St. Michael’s Road, Aba.
The
incident, it was learnt, forced people at the brothel to flee. The area
was deserted, as traders and shop owners closed businesses to avoid
arrest.
Although there has not been any medical report on the cause
of the death, people were of the opinion that the man could have died,
following cardiac arrest or exhaustion, as he was foaming.
The Nation
gathered that the prostitute, having noticed that her customer had
slumped and died atop her, contacted her colleagues and the brothel
workers, who dumped his body behind the brothel.
It was learnt that
officers from the Aba Central Police Station, in an effort to identify
the deceased, recovered from him N20,000, a cheque book, ATM card and a
Man ‘O’ War identity card bearing the name, Mr. Ogadinma Chukwu.
The manager, Mr. Nnamdi, was not around when our correspondent visited the brothel.
The
outgoing commander, Man ‘O’ War, Aba, Mr. Uche Egbuziem, identified
Chukwu as a member of the proscribed Man ‘O’ War Association of Nigeria.
He said the deceased and some members of the defunct group still used
their old identity cards as a cover up.
Police spokesman Geoffrey
Ogbonna could not be reached for comments, but a senior police officer
said the body had been deposited in an undisclosed mortuary, pending
autopsy to determine the cause of the death.
