The Osun State Police Command has launched an investigation into the sudden and tragic death of a young woman, Bidemi Omole, who reportedly died at the home of her boyfriend, Yinka, in Esa-Oke, Osun State.
According to sources in the town, Bidemi had arrived at Yinka’s residence on Friday evening, but shortly after, she became ill and passed away around 9:30 p.m. The circumstances of her death remain unclear, but the incident quickly caused panic across the Oke Esa area, drawing a large crowd to the scene.
A local resident, Taye, said: “We heard a call for help and ran toward Yinka’s house. Security operatives were already there when I arrived, but the place was crowded. The girl usually attends a Friday vigil, so we were surprised this happened.”
