Inspector Lawal Ibrahim, a police officer serving in Abuja, was discovered lifeless in a hotel room under circumstances described as involving a sex marathon.
Reports indicate that the late officer met a woman, identified as Maryam Abba, through an online platform approximately three months ago. After maintaining contact, he reportedly invited her to join him at Palasa Hotel in Abuja last week.
It is alleged that the duo engaged in sexual activity throughout the evening, continuing into the night, and resuming again in the early hours of the morning. Following their activities in the morning, Inspector Lawal reportedly complained of breathing difficulties before becoming unresponsive.
Distressed by the situation, Maryam attempted to revive him by sprinkling water on his face but to no avail. Panicked by the situation, she sought help by informing the hotel manager of the incident.
The hotel management promptly notified the police authorities. Upon their arrival at the scene, officers discovered Inspector Lawal’s lifeless body. He was immediately rushed to the Abuja Teaching Hospital, where medical personnel confirmed him dead on arrival.
Preliminary investigations revealed items recovered at the scene, including a watermelon, a suspected sexual enhancement drug, and a phone charger. These items have been taken into evidence to aid ongoing investigations.
Maryam was taken into custody shortly after the incident and is currently assisting the police with inquiries. Authorities are working to determine whether any foul play was involved in the officer’s untimely death or whether it resulted from natural causes exacerbated by their activities.
The police command in Abuja has yet to issue an official statement regarding the tragic incident. However, sources close to the investigation have confirmed that an autopsy is scheduled to ascertain the exact cause of death.
This unfortunate development has raised discussions about health and lifestyle choices, particularly among law enforcement officers, as well as the need for proper medical checks and caution in the use of enhancement substances.
