- Why are policemen dying in hotel rooms?
The Police Command in Ogun State has launched a manhunt for an unidentified woman after a police officer, Inspector Haruna Mohammed, was found dead in a hotel room at Anthony Uzum Estate, Oyeyemi Akute.
Only last month an Inspector of the Nigeria Police based at the Kwali Division of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Lawal Ibrahim is said to have died during a sexual rendezvous with a woman at Palasa Guest Inn in Gwagwalada Area Council of the FCT.
The deceased officer serving with the Ishashi Division of the Lagos State Police Command arrived with the woman at Super G Hotel at around 1:00 am on Saturday, February 15, 2025.
The spokesperson for the Ogun State Police Command, Omolola Odutola, who confirmed the incident to the punch on Sunday, said that the woman fled shortly afterwards.
A few hours later, the lifeless body of the officer was discovered in the room under mysterious circumstances.
The hotel manager reportedly found the door to the room unlocked at 8:52 am. Upon checking inside, they discovered the officer’s body.
The fleeing woman had allegedly visited the reception around 6:00 am to request a bottle of tap water before disappearing.
The police have classified Mohammed’s death as “unnatural.”
“At first, only a uniform was found in his bag, so it was not immediately possible to confirm he was a police officer. There was no identification card on him or among his belongings,” the PPRO stated.
“However, further investigation revealed that the deceased was an inspector of police serving with the Ishashi Division in the Lagos Command. The DPO has been contacted, and his body has been identified. We have launched a manhunt for the fleeing woman.
