A Lagos bussiness woman, Mrs Rosemary Obidinma, who was reported missing has been found dead.
The resident of Ibafo, Obafemi-Owode Local Government Area of Ogun State, got missing on November 2, 2022, as she did not return from her shop at Apapa, Lagos.
According to reports, she spoke with her son, Daniel, last, around 10pm.
When Daniel and his siblings called her phone, a man picked up the call warned them to stop disturbing him, saying he was in Delta State.
However, Daniel said the Divisional Police Officer, Ketu Police Station, where a report was made earlier, called him and his uncle, Emmanuel Iffi, on Friday to inform them about a one-chance robbery, asking them to come and identify the corpse of a victim.
Daniel said, “He (DPO) said the police had been trying to locate the family members of the corpse without success and the moment he showed us the picture of the corpse, it was my mother.
“We learnt from the police that she was stabbed by one-chance robbers and she bled to death.
“Her body is still in a mortuary, but by Tuesday this week, we will take the body to our village for burial.”
However, the state police spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, had yet to react to the development as of the time of filing this report.
