The hotel workers had checked on Amaka by placing a call to her room, which she answered, confirming that she was fine and alone in the room. She was said to have been alone in the room till the following day.
When it was time to check out, however, and Amaka was not seen, the management was worried and had to force open her room only to find Amaka’s lifeless body in the room.
A distant family friend who pleaded anonymity told The SUN that Amaka’s parents had sent her money for rent when she complained that the person she was staying with asked her to leave the house.
The family friend said: “It was like she was waiting for the end of the weekend before she get the accommodation before the unfortunate incident happened.”
