The disturbing incident, which took place on May 8, 2024, around 12:05 pm, has prompted the Ogun State Police Command to launch a manhunt for the couple.

According to a police source, the tenant, known as Iya Ibukun, had been knocked down by a hit-and-run driver on May 5, 2024.

Tragically, the tenant resorted to self-medication due to concerns about medical expenses, ultimately leading to her demise a few days after the accident.

Shockingly, the landlady and her husband allegedly conspired to remove the corpse from the apartment and dump it in a canal nearby.

“There was an accident; a hit-and-run driver allegedly knocked the tenant down. She didn’t go to the hospital and started treating herself at home. She died a few days after the incident. The landlady and her husband conspired to dump the body in a canal,” the police source revealed.

The Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, confirmed the incident and stated that efforts are underway to recover the body from the canal.

“Our men went to the house and discovered a two-year-old boy in a welfare facility. Meanwhile, our men combed the entire canal in search of the body, but we haven’t found anything,” Odutola said.
