A young man identified as Ufuoma and his girlfriend, Matilda, have been found dead in their apartment in Sapele town, in the Sapele Local Government Area of Delta State.
The love-birds’ lifeless bodies were discovered on Sunday.
They were said to have attended a party the previous night and returned home late.
A source said the lovers were found dead in their apartment along the Niger Delta Development Commission Road in the Amukpe area.
A source said:“Ufuoma’s car was on the premises that morning, which caused curiosity among neighbours.
“The neighbours knocked on their door without any response; they peeped through the window and discovered that one of them was on the bed, while the other was on the floor, lifeless.
“The two lovers were new in the environment; they returned from abroad in 2019. We believe they died from food poisoning”.
