Woman, Daughters Found Dead In Lagos Shop
The Lagos State Police Command is currently investigating the mysterious deaths of a woman and her two daughters inside a shop located in the PPL, Ijagun Okokomaiko area.
The identities of the deceased have not been confirmed at this time as it was discovered that the three individuals had been locked inside the shop for two days before their lifeless bodies were discovered.
Local residents have put forward two possible causes of death. Some speculate that generator fumes may have been the cause, while others suspect food poisoning. The exact cause of their demise remains unknown.
Following Islamic traditions, the bodies of the deceased have been laid to rest. The police are continuing their investigation to unravel the circumstances surrounding this tragic incident.
According to a witness who requested to remain anonymous due to concerns of potential reprisal, he became aware of the incident while he was out purchasing breakfast.
He said, “On Friday night, the woman locked herself in the shop with her daughters while the generator was on. On Saturday, someone passed by and still saw the shop locked with the generator on.
“On Monday morning, people were worried as there was an offensive odour around her shop. Then, the husband broke into the shop and he found the dead bodies of his wife and children. These bodies were found in the inner shop and the other extension was where the generator was placed.”
The source also mentioned that officials from the Ojo Local Government were responsible for the removal of the bodies from the shop.
When approached for comment, Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, verified the occurrence of the incident. “It has been confirmed that the incident took place last week,” he stated.
