Man Flee With Lover’s Daughter After Her Death In Rivers
A man has fled with his lover’s 2-year-old daughter after she died at her residence at Woke Street, off Chirubim Road, Mile 3, Diobu, Port Harcourt, Rivers.
All Facts News reports that the body of the deceased was discovered by her co-tenants on December 19.
A caretaker of the house, Chinonye Anurum confirmed that the man identified simply as Uchechi was not married to the deceased.
He said: “She was sick for almost four days and the man did not tell anybody. Maybe he suspected that the lady would give up the ghost, so he took the child away.
“It was the following day we got information that after he left with the little girl, he went to Mile 3 and told one of her friends to go and check if she was still alive.
“So around 8pm, we saw her friend who said it was like Oyigbo was dead. That was how she hinted us. We went to the house and found out that she was already dead.
“As the caretaker, I had to go to the police to report. Up till now, we have not seen the man and the child. So, that is why people are suspecting that he may know what happened to the girl.”
Nnamdi Omoni, the state police spokesperson who also corroborated the incident, said the police are currently investigating the case.
