…… Warn against hook up culture and trusting strangers at face value
The Ogun State Police Command has launched an investigation into the sudden and unnatural death of one Haruna Mohammed, male, who was found lifeless in his hotel room at Super G Royal Hotel, Anthony Uzum Estate, Oyeyemi, Akute on February 15, 2025.
According to the hotel owner, the deceased checked into the hotel at about 0102hrs with an unidentified lady, whose name and address remain unknown. Around 0600hrs, the lady approached the reception to request a bottle of table water. However, at 0852hrs, the hotel manager, Deborah Ogunjobi (female), discovered that the door to the room was unlocked. Upon entry, she found Haruna Mohammed’s lifeless body and immediately raised the alarm.
Upon receiving the report, detectives from Ajuwon Division responded to the scene, evacuated the body, and deposited it at Life Channel Mortuary, Olambe. A search of the deceased’s belongings led to the discovery of a police inspector’s camouflage uniform inside his bag, raising further concerns about his identity and circumstances surrounding his death.
The police have made arrests for interrogation purposes, while the female companion of the deceased is currently at large. Preliminary findings remain inconclusive, but the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) has taken over the case for a detailed inquiry.
In light of this tragic incident, the Ogun State Police Command reiterates its warning against the risks associated with hookup culture and trusting strangers at face value. Since January 2024, the Command’s Public Relations Department has been conducting public enlightenment campaigns on personal safety. Young people are strongly advised to exercise caution when interacting with strangers and avoid situations that may compromise their security.
The Command assures the public that it remains committed to unraveling the circumstances behind this incident and will bring any perpetrators to justice.
