Residents in shock as remnants of a decomposed body of a man were reportedly found in the bedroom of his house after four years in Apete, Ibadan.

It was learnt that the deceased (unknown identity) was reportedly seen by neighbours four years ago during one of his occasional trip to Ibadan from Port Harcourt in Rivers State where he resides at the time.

As at the time of filing this report, the cause of death is yet to be ascertained.

Residents told newsmen that non of the residents in the area knew about the incident until this week when the community decided to enter into the compound to cut the overgrown grass inside his compound which has become a haven for snakes and rodents.

It was gathered that the Abokis who were contracted for the job of cutting the grass in the deceased compound were told to jump into the compound since the gate of the house were locked from behind only for them to found out that the car of the house owner is in the premises and has been covered with grass.

According to eyewitness , after managing to cut down the bush , they peeped at the window of the building and saw the skeleton of the decomposed corpse on his bed with a phone in his hand.

Officers of the Oyo state police command are currently carrying out a comprehensive investigation into the incident.

What's the essence of having family and friends when they can't devote time and check on you once in a while.

He's probably living in a non residential area, anyways R.I.P to him

How was it possible neighbors didn't perceive the stench?

Wow, no family

Thousands are happening in this life ooo.



Human beings are just a little above animals.

I just wondering that nobody could perceived the kind of heavy smell that comes out while the body was decomposing, because I could see building sharing the same fence.

Choke

Na where to marry good be that.

No family member knows his house to check up on him for solid 4 years? Na wah ooo

My thoughts as well. Something is not right about the story

Look for a wife and marry. Have a family
.. there is nothing dignifying in loneliness

Hard to believe because the smell would have alerted people

The man was a loner, he has other properties but tend to come to that place once in a while,his golf 3 car has been covered with bush before the Hausas came to cut it, about the stench, as at 4 years ago the building was quite isolated from the nearest house so it was possible for people not to percieve the stench, when they removed his sim and called some contacts, the first guy they called was just laughing before he cut the call........The place is quite close to my friend's house. He gave me the gist.

Wow...

Stranger than fiction...

This is exactly what Nigeria is right now
People are dying in silence

Someone check out on me

Where were his family in all of this?? Didn't they go in search of him in d house when they didn't hear about him or wat? Where are his wife and children ? Was he d only one living in that house? Did his family not declare him wanted?? Did they not trace him to that house?? This is a misery that must be unfold. And that area was near to my former house in apete ooo

That guy they called should be top on the list of suspects for a possible homicide...

Was he an Introvert
So no one deemed it fit even an enemy of his to check up on him..


This is a horrible death

Many question popped up in my mind,I thought we were told that the man was married working in PH while calling a guy why not calling his wife or relatives.anything can happened I had the door was broken before they could enter the building cause I listened to it on splash FM Ibadan yesterday as I saw the news I new it was the man.they should search if they will see vital documents about him

His family must be very mad

sometimes when you are too shocked, lost for words , or extremely surprised you might burst out laughing, laughter has different shades.

Maybe he has been calling him over 3 years now.

Nawa

humans are just advanced mammal

I'm more interested in the forensics the Nigerian police would want to conduct
If they can enumerate the steps, I'll be happier

Things are happening

That's the typical Nigerian incompetent Police procedure. There's nothing linking The person to the death so far.

Or probably laughed it off thinking it was a scam call.
