Yaba, are currently investigating the death of a middle-aged man, identified as
Anuoluwapo Saheed, who was reportedly stabbed to death at a hotel in Abule Egba
area of Lagos.
It was
learned that the victim, Saheed was attacked by hoodlums led by a one Emmanuel,
on July 30, in front of Buffalo Hotel, located along Akerele Street in the
Abule Egba area.
Vanguard gathered
that the hoodlums traced the victim to the hotel where he was drinking with his
friends. He was lured outside the hotel by a s*x worker attached to the hotel
before they pounced on him.
Anuoluwapo
Saheed was allegedly stabbed while conversing and romancing the yet-to-be
identified commercial s*x worker at the gate of the hotel.
An
eyewitness, who identified herself as Taye Adeokya, told Vanguard that the
victim was not stabbed inside the hotel.
”He came
inside to drink, and he was strolling out with one of the hotel s*x workers
when the incident happened.
I think
the assailants were cultists, and they had been lurking around the area for
very long. As soon as he came out of the gates, he was attacked,” she said.
It was
gathered that the victim was later rushed to a nearby hospital, but bled to
death.
The Lagos
State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Patricia Amadin, confirmed the
incident, saying investigation was ongoing on the matter.
