A staff of Nigerian Breweries Plc,
his wife and five of their children have been found dead in their residence by
neighbours in Lagos.
The man identified as Etim Edet and
members of his family were discovered days after they had died in their sleep
on their beds at their home in Badigo area of Ijede in Ikorodu.
It was gathered that neighbours who did not see any
member of the family for some days made attempts to find out what was wrong.
After knocking for a long time without any response, they left wondering what
must have happened to them.

apartment, they perceived some foul smell and decided to inform the police.

operatives who came to the scene broke the door to the entrance of their home
only to discover their decomposing dead bodies on their beds.

Command, DSP Ngozi Braide, confirmed the incident.
She explained that on May 1, being
workers day, about 4pm, there was a report at Ijede Police Station that a
family of seven are suspected dead in their home in Ikorodu.

allegedly found dead with his wife and five children on their beds at his
residence at Bagido area of Ijede.
