The body of the husband of a University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) professor was yesterday found hanging on a tree in Ilorin.
The deceased’s name was given as Olubunmi Olademo. He was said to be a businessman.
The corpse was reportedly discovered about 7.30am at the site of the family home under construction around Tanke area, on the University Road.
The state police command is currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the death.
Professor Oyeronke Olademo of the Department of Religious Studies was initially arrested by the police but was released on bail yesterday afternoon.
Sources said the man had allegedly demanded an undisclosed amount of money from his wife, but the request was turned down. The man, according to the sources, allegedly threatened to kill himself and was said to have left a suicide note at home.
The sources said the deceased allegedly called his wife on the phone and repeated the threat. The woman was said to have gone to report the matter at the “F” Division, Tanke.
The police were said to have searched for the man. According to a police source, four police officers and the wife looked for the deceased on Tuesday night.
Early in the morning yesterday, one of his children reportedly told the search team that the man had said he was going to an uncompleted building. The search party headed for the place. On getting there, which is between the university gate and a popular private radio station, the body was found hanging on a tree.
The UNILORIN authorities did not comment on the matter as they said the deceased was not their employee.
The Police Public Relations Officer Dabo Ezekiel confirmed the incident.
He said the body has been deposited at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital morgue, while investigation continues.
