Firstclass newsline learnt that Richard Utubor, the 35-year-old man
arrested by the Lagos police after a lady he picked up from the road
died in his apartment, has said he would never assist people again.
Utubor, an indigene of Igueben, Edo State, was arrested in the Baruwa
Estate, Ipaja area of Lagos State, on Saturday after taking the victim
home on Friday.
A source had reported that the suspect had taken the deceased home
after she asked him for financial help.
A police source had told our correspondent that the duo was making
love, when the victim died.
A neighbour was said to have alerted the police and Utubor was
subsequently arrested.
Utubor, who had been transferred to the State Department of Criminal
Investigation, Yaba, denied having intercourse with the victim.
He said, "I was at School bus stop, Abesan Estate, around 10.30pm when
the woman, who was about 40 years old, asked me for financial help.
She asked for N200.
"I told her I had only N50 on me. She knelt down begging me to assist
her, and saying she would follow me to wherever I was going, just to
collect the money.
"At that point, I agreed to assist her with the N200 she wanted. She
followed me to my house, which was not far from the bus stop. When I
got home, I opened the door, while she stood outside.
"Just as I was about to enter, she complained of a headache. Before I
came out from the room with the N200, she had slumped and I
immediately called my younger brother and neighbours to assist me.
Before I knew it, she was dead."
Utubor said he regretted taking the victim to his apartment, adding
that he did it in good faith because he had a "giving spirit."
The Ordinary National Diploma graduate of Public Administration swore
that if he got out of the trouble, he would never render assistance to
people again.
He said, "I just rented a room and parlour apartment on David
Ogunsanya Street because I will be getting married in December this
year. I did my traditional wedding during the Easter celebration.
"I did not have sex with her. I did not even give her water or food.
If God gets me out of this, I will not help people again in my life."
He said when he picked the victim from the road, she did not have any
means of identification on her and that she only wore her clothes and
a pair of slippers.
Utubor, who is the eldest in a family of five children, said he did
not bother to ask for her name because he had no ulterior motive.
"She had no phone, handbag or anything to indicate her identity except
a rapper and the dress she had on her. What I just noticed was that
immediately she slumped, she was foaming in the mouth.
"I did not take her home to sleep with her. That was why I did not
bother to ask for her name or where she was coming from or going to,"
he added.
A police source, however, said when Utubor was arrested, he was half naked.
