A 26-year-old man identified as Ebere was discovered dead on Monday morning in a hotel room near Midwifery Junction in Okpanam, Delta State.
According to reports, Ebere had checked into the hotel around 4 p.m. on Sunday accompanied by a friend. By 6 a.m. the following day, hotel staff were alerted after the friend raised the alarm upon finding Ebere unresponsive on the floor.
“CCTV footage shows the man arriving with a companion. The friend claims they went to sleep and woke up to find him dead,” a source said.
The Delta State Police Command has detained the friend while an autopsy is being conducted.
Police spokesperson SP Bright Edafe confirmed, “The suspect will remain in custody until the cause of death is determined through an autopsy.”
The hotel management promptly reported the incident, and the deceased’s body has been taken to the morgue.
