It took several minutes before the women at the party were able to raise some help and take him to the hospital. Police at New Gbagi Division were said to have promptly referred the matter to the state CID.

Authoritative sources indicated that efforts to crack the case have not yielded fruit as at the time of filing this report.

The top manager who was said to be loving in Bodija Estate, Ibadan had met his untimely death on the eve of retirement.
