Neighbors of the deceased were unaware of the incident till they noticed a putrid smell emanating from his appointment and promptly called the authorities.

It was gathered that Nnaji’s neighbours, who were unaware of what had happened to him, started perceiving a foul odour emitting from his apartment and informed the police.

A commercial driver in the area, who gave his name simply as Musa said:

“The engineer’s corpse was found in his apartment in the Dawaki area. The policemen came to evacuate his corpse on Saturday around 8pm. The corpse was already decomposing which means that the incident might have happened before Saturday.


People in the area are still yet to come to terms with how the incident happened. The house has been cordoned off as we speak,”

A source in the FCT Police Command said:
