lead a stress-free life. The Human Resources Manager of 7-Up Bottling Company
at its Benin City plant, Mr. Sola Mosiko, has collapsed and died in a hotel
room in Benin City, Edo State.
Investigation reveals that Mosiko, 53, had gone
to the hotel with a lady called Amen, a security guard in 7-Up company, to have
fun when the tragedy occurred.
The lady was arrested by the police after she fled from the hotel
room immediately her boss cum lover slumped and was grasping for breath.
An indigene of Ayetoro-Gbede in Kogi State, Northcentral Nigeria, Mosiko called
at the hotel with Amen after the day’s work to relax and enjoy themselves.
However, a few hours after they checked into the hotel, Amen rushed out and was
shouting for help. But all efforts to resuscitate Mosiki proved abortive. The
lady was later arrested and handed over to the police at Ekiadolor Police
Station, Benin City.
She was detained for three days after which she was released.
According to sources, Mosiko’s wife and children left Lagos for Benin City to
spend their vacation with him and on the night of the incident, his wife made
several calls to his phone without any response. But the following morning, the
police used her husband’s phone to call and invite her to the hospital where
Mosiko was taken to.
A source said: “When Mrs. Mosiko’s phone rang in the morning, she felt something
was amiss since she could not sleep throughout the night while awaiting the
arrival of her husband at home. She became more worried when the caller, a
policeman invited her to a hospital.
“Initially, she thought it was an accident. But she was shocked when she
searched her dead husband’s body and saw no wound. She was later informed that
her husband died in a hotel.”
