Police Sergeant dies in Lagos hotel

A Police Sergeant identified as Jude Nwadudu has been found dead in a hotel located at Iju, a Lagos suburb.

The deceased whose wife is also a Sergeant, was recently transferred to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) headquarters of the Lagos State Police Command from Kogi State.

According to reports, Nwadudu was said to have gone there for a ‘good time’ with his female friend during the Easter holidays when the incident occurred.

It was gathered that the deceased after relaxing with the unnamed lady, went into the bathroom to freshen up but slipped.

He was said to have hit his head on the floor and became unconscious, prompting the lady to raise alarm for people to come to his rescue.

It was learnt that the father of four was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was transferred to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), where he eventually died on Easter Sunday.

His companion was said to have been invited for questioning and was released after her statement was documented. (TVC)
