A 27-year-old man, identified as Tolu Falansa, was found dead in his apartment following a midnight fire incident in the Owode-Yewa community, located in the Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State.
Falansa, who reportedly kept his motorcycle inside the room where he slept, was found lying dead beside the machine in a room filled with smoke.
A resident, known only as Kafaya, told the police that they only discovered the incident when some people came looking for the deceased.
We didn’t think something of that nature had happened until two boys came to look for Falansa. I pointed his apartment to them when they asked where he was,” Kafaya said.
Kafaya was in shock when the individuals returned to inform her that Falansa had died of smoke inhalation in his apartment.
Odutola said, “The incident was reported to the Owode-Yewa Police Division at about 7 a.m. on July 28, 2024, by one of the neighbours. When our men went to the scene, the motorcycle he kept in his room had burnt while his lifeless body was lying inside the same.”
