Days after a Lagos banker, Osemudiamen Idemudia, was declared missing by his family, his body was discovered at a morgue in the Yaba area of the state.

PUNCH Metro reported that Idemudia, who worked in the Point-of-Sale department of a commercial bank in the Ikota area of Lagos State, was last seen on the evening of May 9 in the CMS area of the state.

A relative of the deceased, who identified himself simply as Segun, however, told our correspondent on Wednesday that the corpse was discovered on Sunday during a desperate search across hospitals and morgues in the state.

The relative said the deceased 26-year-old banker was found with deep machete cuts on his head, face, and legs.

He added that the discovery raised suspicions that he might have been murdered.

“We have found Osemudiamen’s body. He was murdered. We found the body on Sunday in a morgue at Yaba with machete cuts on his head, face, and legs. I’m so sad.”

Segun further stated that the police were said to have brought the corpse to the morgue.

He also added that efforts to get more details about how and where the body was recovered from were unsuccessful as the attendants could not provide the identities of the officers.

“The staff members of the morgue claimed that the body was brought in by the police but when we asked where they brought the body from, they could not provide an answer. They said they did not have details of the policemen who brought the corpse to their facility. That made the discovery more complicated.”

According to him, the remains had been buried by the family on Tuesday.

The father of the late banker, Julius, while narrating what transpired on the day his son went missing, told our correspondent that he left the office alongside a colleague for an appointment with a senior staff member at the bank’s headquarters in CMS, Lagos Island.

However, upon their arrival at CMS, the scheduled meeting was cancelled by the official.

The two colleagues then decided to head home.

He said that after parting ways with his colleague, Osemudiamen was neither seen nor heard from again.

He said, “Osemudiamen has been missing since Friday, May 9. He resumed at his office in Ikota that morning and later planned to go to the head office with a colleague after work for an appointment they had with a senior staff member. However, while they were on their way, the official called to say he wouldn’t be able to see them until Monday.

“When they eventually got to CMS, they parted ways. As usual, Osemudiamen was expected to board a bus to Iyana Ipaja, and from there, take another bus to Igando. But when it started getting late and we hadn’t heard from him, we became worried. After 24 hours of no contact, we raised the alarm. Since then, we haven’t heard from him. Our hearts are heavy with worry. This is so unlike him, and we are deeply concerned for his safety and well-being.”

Julius said the incident was reported at the Igando Police Station which is close to the Akesan area where Osemudiamen lived.

The State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, could not be reached as calls made to his telephone line were not responded to. A text message sent to him had yet to be replied to as of the time this report was filed.

Hmmm.......Naija happened to him

The Bad News, Still Shock Mr Blogger Till Now.

Rip

Probably a case of robbery gone wrong.

RIP

Maybe he loaned someone money so they decided to kill him to avoid repayment.

Or maybe he's a cultist since he is Benin.

Too bad

When you go out and come back safely be grateful to God,it's not your right it's a privilege..

And somebody will tell me that lagos is safer to live in, than ABUJA.

May his soul rest in peace. I smell complicity here.

Just don't trust those men in blue with black hearts

How do you admit a corpse without identity of the officers? It's well

So painful. May God comfort his family he left behind.

Wicked world

seems fishy to me

May his soul rest in eace

This is terrible. After graduating and NYSC, got job in a bank and then he was killed. Life is cruel

this is so sad, tears roll down my eyes reading this.

people are just so wicked in this part of the world..


pls, if your work place is far from your house, kindly seek accommodation close to where you work, imagine the stress of going from igando to ikota in ajah everyday and going back at late hour in the night, my deepest condolence to his family. On the other hand, how can the morgue receive corpse without proper documentation from the police, many things are just wrong in this country, so police couldn't give information of where they found the body and also investigate what must have led to his death, Nigeria is a cursed country, they don't value live in this part of the world.

Possible case of cu.lt.ism,business gone wrong or mere natural causes




Rip,banker

They should investigate those two colleagues , this story no clear , how will you seet off to go to bank HQ in CMS after work ? I insist those two colleagues be investigated

OK ,


if you kill an innocent person who did nothing wrong to you,



you will die too




say no to any type of crime.

CCTV should be mandatory in most organizations by now. If we had videos someone would have been able to identify the officers

The mogue attendant received corpse from officers without knowing the details of the dead they received?
It's somehow

Imagine the basic needs the govt owes us had been sooo cut short.
Food= things are expensive that even the rich are crying
Clothes = no more affordable
Shelter = rents increment here and there
Security = no safe place in Nigeria anymore. People been killed without justice that it has now become the new normal.
God help us
May his soul rest in peace

The country is bleeped. Meaning anybody can just go and deposit corpse in the morgue without giving out any personal details.it is even possible the body was deposited by a random person and not the police.the country na anyhow place.
