The remains of Caleb Chiemele have been recovered from a short-let apartment on the LSDPC Estate, off Freedom Way, in the Lekki Phase 1 area of Lagos State, Nigeria.
PUNCH Metro reported on Monday that Chiemele, who had been staying in the apartment since May 12, did not come out of his apartment on June 12. Out of concern, some individuals, including the owner of the apartment, Adewole Olufemi, decided to check on him. Peeping through his window, they found Chiemele lying motionless on the floor.
Realizing Chiemele was unresponsive, they alerted the police from the Maroko Division. The police forced the door open and, upon assessing Chiemele’s condition, determined he had died.
A source, who spoke to our correspondent on the condition of anonymity, confirmed that Chiemele’s body had been removed and deposited in the morgue.
The source said, “The corpse was discovered around 8 pm on June 12, 2024, at a short-let apartment on the LSDPC Estate, off Freedom Way, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos. The short-let was owned by one Adewole Olufemi. He reported to the police that Caleb Chiemele had stayed in his short-let apartment since May 12, 2024.
“But around 5 pm on June 12, they noticed that Caleb had not been seen since the morning and, based on that observation, they decided to peep through the window and saw him lying on the floor in the apartment.”
When the police were informed, they visited the apartment and found Chiemele deceased.
