A soon to be retired Nigerian police officer identified by local media as Francis Onugha was reportedly found dead in his home on Sunday after an alleged sex romp.

According to The Vanguard , he was found dead after a sex romp with a woman who snuck out when she found out he was unconscious.

Reports also have it that the woman removed her contacts from his phone before escaping.

A source who prefers anonymity alleged that “an unknown lady slept in the room with the late police officer but sneaked out when she discovered that the man died.”

“He used to wake up very early and go round duty posts to supervise police officers on duty, but that early Sunday, he couldn’t come out, we suspected something must be wrong, so when we rushed into the house, we found him dead,” the source revealed.

The Police spokesperson, Nansel Ramhan confirmed the death of Onugha but could not confirm if he died after a sex romp as claimed.

According to the PPRO, the corpse has been deposited at a Hospital for an autopsy to ascertain the cause of his sudden death.

He said an investigation has commenced.
