The body of a tenant has been discovered by the police at a building on the Ogunjobi street in Lagos state.

The tenant, simply identified as Nike was found dead in her apartment on Friday, July 9, 2021, by her neighbour, Bolaji Kolade.

According to Kolade, he noticed that he did not see the late Nike for the past two days and decided to check up on her.

“Upon checking her door, he discovered that it was locked from inside. The neighbour also noticed that flies had perched around the window and there was a foul smell emanating from the room,” a source in the community told the local media.

According to reports, Kolade called the attention of other neighbours to his observation and a complaint was lodged at the Oke-Odo division.

“A police team visited the scene and upon arrival, the door was forcefully opened. The decomposing body of the said Nike was found lying on the bed,” a police source confided in our correspondent, adding that “no mark of violence was observed on the body.”
