Kelechi
Nwigbo, a Germany-returnee, has allegedly been killed by lightning in his hotel
room behind Eke Market, Afikpo, Ebonyi state.
He had
checked into the hotel with the instruction that nobody should disturb him, but
after four days, the hotel management started perceiving an offensive odour
from his room and immediately alerted the police.
When officers
broke into the room, Nwigbo was seen carrying a calabash with some money inside
and with white cloth material on his head and waist. The state Police Public
Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Odah Loveth, confirmed the incident.
Workers in
the hotel revealed that they heard the thunder strike from his window but
because he had instructed that nobody
should come to his room unless he called the hotel’s attention, they did not
bother going to check on him.
Police
investigation revealed that the last time he visited Nigeria was in 2017 and
his family was not aware of his recent trip to the country, let alone being in
Afikpo.
