lordimpaq: Its really amazing when people do not actually know what happened and the thread is filled with assumptions about the situation and no one even cares to find out the true story.

firstly, they are not actual couples, the male is a driver while the female is his boss as she is a zonal executive of a bank on Adetokunbo Ademola as depicted on the lady's lapel

secondly, the couple did not sleep off, they slumped and had to be resuscitated.

the story according to the drivers of that bank is that they were coming from the house of the friend of the female, what transpired in there we do not know.

Both are now awake but have not spoken a word as at last night, all indications point to them being drugged or some form of drugging...well we would see how it unfolds...
hmmmmn
So, they both ate or drank something at the friends place?
Interesting oh

I am just guessing, but this may be a case of carbon monoxide poisoning.

If it was indeed CO poisoning, the couple should have been taken out the vehicle immediately, so that they could get oxygen.

Oxygen is needed in order to increase the removal of the carbon monoxide from hemoglobin.

They should get rid of the car, its carbon monoxide poisoning and nothing more. How unscientific can Nairalanders be.

Jakumo: Carbon-monoxide poisoning from a silencer leak in their car, especially while stuck in traffic, would indeed put all occupants into a deep slumber that could lead to a comatose state, followed by death, if they are not removed from the source of the exhaust leak and given oxygen quickly.
. Exactly,d first car is a prado jeep,whyl d oda is likely 2 b a honda sedan vehicle,infact d information is wrong

Find Out!:
Hmmm...... Is this for real?

Both pics posted are of different cars. First pic is obviously a Landcruiser Prado while second pic looks very much like a Honda Accord 06-07 (discussion continues). Care to tell us which of the cars the couple is actually sleeping in?

Edit: Photography could have been better. 1st photo not needed as it appears the Prado was just a 'spectator' car alongside the other people looking at the main 'car of interest' parked close to the Prado
Good observation! Aside from that, look at the first picture, you would see that the new EKO hotel was still under construction then. That tells the picture was taken some years back and the OP claimed he took the picture yesterday. All these bloggers can lie just to attract traffic.

Thanks for pointing these out but I have a few questions.

Most madam's seat it in the back seat of their car but from the picture we can see that she's in the front seat.. so it would make more sense to assume that they have a partner or friend relationship than Madam and Driver

Also it seems as though her seat is also reclined as if she intended to take a nap.. don;t know if anyone else noticed that?

@Your 3rd point, obviously you are obodo oyinbo wannabe. You could have said you took too much Pounded yam and that will sit well with me but making it look like pounded yam is the problem here sounds funny. Even in the remote las vegas,Nevada we still look for african stores to buy iyan ingredients and cook correct egusi. sit down there o. I dont understand why Africans don't celebrate their things?

Typical Nigerian and quick to judge. I don't get your point. Statements in bold are out of line with my post. What's the wannabe coming from? The fact that I eat pounded yam and egusi clearly renders your comment futile....it means I love my Nigerian food and proudly eats them. The debate is not about celebrating or pretending, is about the heaviness of the food. If you read my last statement...I said I still eat them but in reduced quantity.

topeorekoy: I was on Ademola Adetokunbo, I saw this crowd gathered around a car right in front of Eko Hotels. I stylishly moved closer and asked one of the usual Lagos "gather around' and was told that the couple while driving along the road slept and eventually stopped in front of Eko Hotels.

Despite people opening the car doors, the couple still did not wake up but they are breathing as at the time I took these pictures.

What could have happened to this couple? Were they drugged or are they on drugs?
