Two lovers, Emmanuel Oshiotu (33) and Amaka Okafor (25) were on Thursday found dead in their one-room apartment in Uvwie community in the Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State.

Neighbours said Oshiotu attracted attention around 5am when he shouted for help in their apartment located at Ojigbo Crescent, Off Sapele-Effurun Road, Uvwie.

Upon breaking the door into their apartment, neighbours found him vomiting white foam while his lover’s lifeless body lay a few distance from him.”

They were reportedly rushed to the Central Hospital, Warri, where they were both confirmed dead on arrival and their bodies deposited in the morgue.

No other person was in the apartment at the time of the incident to shed light on what really transpired.

However a can of insecticide and a knife were found beside the couple, a development that suggested that it might have been suicide.

Facebook posts of Emmanuel also hinted that he had been going through some frustration.
