A man has been declared wanted by Lagos State Police Command for alleged murder of his lover at a hotel on Prince Adeyemi Street, Ikotun, Lagos. It was learnt that the suspect, whose name had yet to be ascertained, had lodged in a room in Taola Hotel with his girlfriend around 9.30pm on Friday.


He was said to have paid for one hour which was supposed to elapse around 10.30pm. Workers of the facility, however, became worried when it was 12am and the guests did not check out of the hotel.

The manager of the hotel, identified only as Ahmadu, was said to have gone to check the room only to discover that the woman was dead, while the suspect had fled. Ahmadu reported the case at the Ikotun Police Division, while the remains of the victim were deposited in a morgue.
