A 30-year-old hairdresser, Ijimo Ibrahim is currently cooling off at the Department of Criminal Investigation of the Ogun State Police Command after her 78-year-old lover, Adedayo Deru died while they were having sex on Sept 30.
Ijimo a mother of 2 narrated to Punch how the politician she met 6-years ago died.
“He only came for sex in the mornings so that his wife would not suspect”, the fair complexioned woman said, as her face revealed that she would prefer not to relive the sordid details of the affair.
“There was a day I was with him. We had sex but the wife caught us. So, I had to leave the town shortly after. I went to Lagos to work as an apprentice hairdresser.
“When we reconnected after I got back from Lagos, we continued our love affair secretly because he was always there when I needed help. He came as usual on September 30 around 9am. I was on my way out of the house; I was going to work already that day. But he met me as I got out of the door and said he was visiting me.
“I told him I could spare some hours before I left for work, so I went back inside with him. As soon as we got in, he stripped and I did the same. It was just one round of sex that we had and I don’t know why that could have killed him. Our lovemaking was not even that long. He started complaining that he was not feeling fine. He said he was feeling tired and dizzy. Shortly after, he collapsed and stopped breathing”.
“My brother (the relation) told me to calm down, promising to come to my aid later that afternoon so that we could decide on what to do. But when I did not see him by evening, I realized he had run away and switched off his mobile telephone in fear.
“We thought if I reported to the police, I would be in serious trouble. I didn’t know”.
A motorcyclist, Benjamin Friday, who helped in disposing the deceased body the next day around 3:00am claimed he didn’t know the politician was dead.
“When they woke me up to help them carry a body, I was told it was her (Ibrahim’s) elderly relation. I was really sleepy, they only told me he was ill and they wanted to dump his body on a roadside so that he would not die in her house. I told them I would not touch the man’s body. Someone sat behind me supporting the man’s body. I only drove them to the roadside. They put the body down and I left.”
Also arrested was Funmilayo Moyegun, a photographer friend of Ibrahim who claimed she was contacted to take the deceased photograph:
“I only held the lamp when the body was being dumped”, she said.
Deru’s body was said to have been dumped about 100 metres away from his lover’s house on Oladipo Diya Road, Odogbolu. The police were called to the scene when the body was found by residents of the area.
Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Mr. Muyiwa Adejobi confirmed the story.
