In what seems like a scene from Nollywood, a certain ugly drama recently played out on Monday, June 29, at Ikotun, Lagos State, after a housewife, Mrs Joy Bakare, who was allegedly impregnated by her secret lover, died in her lover’s custody after she gave birth to twins.

The bubble busted when Joy died few days after delivering a set of twin; a boy and a girl for her equally married lover, Fatai.

It was gathered that before her death, Joy already had three children for her estranged husband who resides in Surulere area of Lagos State before she became pregnant for Fatai who lived at Abaranje in Ikotun area.

When her lover got wind of her pregnancy, to cover up the shame, he relocated her to the house of a single mother where she eventually put to bed.

However, few days after she was delivered of the babies in a hospital and was brought back to the woman’s flat, she was found dead and foaming from her mouth on top of a bed in one of the rooms in the flat.

When the woman, who harboured her in the flat, heard the babies crying, she went to Joy’s room to find out what was happening only to discover that Joy was dead.

She raised an alarm which attracted neighbours to her flat.

When contacted, her estranged husband rejected her corpse as well as the deceased’s lover, who said he does not know the cause of her death.

It later took the intervention of the deceased elder sister, who volunteered to take the corpse to Isolo General Hospital mortuary.

Meanwhile, the cause of Joy’s death could not be immediately ascertained as there was no report of autopsy from any doctor.
