Man slumps, dies inside sex worker’s room in Niger

A yet- to-be-identified man has reportedly slumped and died at a guest house in Paiko, the headquarters of Paikoro LGA of Niger State, where he had allegedly gone to see a commercial sex worker.

The guest house reportedly belongs to Paikoro LGA and is located within the Paiko popular market, where traders, who usually come from far places, also lodge.

One of the traders, who preferred anonymity, said the incident happened in the night on Tuesday after the deceased was done having affairs with the sex worker.

He said, “The man was done having affairs with the lady and was putting on his trousers, as the lady narrated to us, when he suddenly slumped and died.

‘’The lady has been arrested by the police while the corpse of the man was taken to IBB Specialist Hospital in Minna. We cannot trace his family because he had no phone or any means of identification on his body. This is the first time we are experiencing this in this market.”

When contacted, the spokesperson of the Niger State Police Command, SP Wasiu Abiodun, confirmed the incident.

He said, “An incident of a suspected sudden death was reported at Paiko Div, that on 15/10/24 at about 2050hrs, a yet to be identified male adult visited the LGA lodge with a lady, and thereafter, he slumped and he was rushed to a nearby medical facility in Paiko where he was confirmed dead.

“The incident is being investigated as a medical autopsy is being awaited. Effort is also ongoing to locate his relatives for necessary arrangements.”
