Prostitute dies after sex marathon

A commercial sex worker has died after sex romp with customers in a brothel in Obollo-Afor, Enugu State.
The incident, which occurred on Saturday, led to the arrest of one Ikechukwu Oga, who was the last
customer that spent the night with the deceased.
Ikechukwu had gone to a brothel where he met with the deceased and struck a sex deal.
Having agreed on the bargain, Ikechukwu said he was asked to wait for his turn, as someone was
already on the line.
By the time he came back, Roseline was still on duty just as she pleaded with him to exercise patience, promising to be with him throughout the night.
She later invited him into the room for his turn but was unable to conclude the deal as the commercial sex worker complained of being tired
which forced him to come down.
He reportedly slept off but was woken up by sympathizers who complained that Roseline was
already dead.
“I did not conclude my first round of the deal before she complained that she was tired and that was at midnight. I came down and that was the end of the sex match. I cannot say what led to her death, he said.
Dead body of the deceased have been recovered and deposited in a nearby hospital while the suspect is helping the police in their
investigations.

Fayose lobbies Buhari for portfolio

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to consider the state for one of the “Grade A” federal ministries. “Ekiti, being one of the states created last in the country,
deserves a ministerial portfolio that will have direct impact on the people, not just a minister for the
sake of federal character.”
In a statement issued yesterday by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and News Media, Lere Olayinka, Fayose said his position was not to favour any individual but in the collective
interest of Ekiti people.”
He said all Ekiti indigenes must work together for the progress of the state not minding diverse political interests, adding, “my interest, first and foremost, is the collective good of Ekiti and its people and I will continue to lend my voice to the
promotion of Ekiti interests.”

“Our people want one of the best ministries where developmental efforts of the state government can
be adequately complemented, not just a ministry that will only be of benefit to the minister and his
immediate family members,” the governor said.
