The victim’s husband, Olaoluwa Adebanjo, said he received a distress call from neighbours about the incident.
But he eventually found her dead.
He said: “One of my neighbours called me and informed me of an urgent life-and-death issue. I tried calling my wife, but someone else answered; it was the woman she had gone to buy something from. She told me to come quickly because my wife was on the floor. When I arrived on our street, I found my wife dead on the ground with the police already at the scene. They were waiting for me to identify the corpse before they could take her to the mortuary.”
While speaking to the Nation, Adebanjo lamented that he was heartbroken and still in shock about his wife’s tragic death.
