A sad development has occured at the Ogun State chapter of the PDP.
According
to The News Nigeria, The Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party,PDP in
Ipokia local government area of Ogun state, Alhaji Saruku Suraju AKA, Aro Meta,
has died in a hotel popularly known as De Lovers Hotel in the town of Ipokia. He
was aged 68.
It
was gathered that the PDP leader, Aro
Meta had allegedly gone into the hotel with a female friend, who disappeared before
he was found dead.
His
death at De Lovers Hotel on Friday night has triggered a number of
conspiracy theories. It also caused to be postponed the conferment of an
Islamic chieftaincy title on him at the town’s central mosque.
He
was to be turbaned on Saturday as Giwa Adinni of Ibatefin Central
Mosque, but the ceremony had to be postponed indefinitely.
According to
family sources he died around 9:00pm on Friday and he was buried on
Saturday, according to Islamic rites.
“Yes, he died
at De Lover hotel. What I know was that, his party, PDP was going to
have the final meeting of those to be elected as officers of the party in their
forthcoming Congress.
“He was on his
way to the meeting when they said, a lady called him on his phone and asked him
to join her in the hotel. It was his body that was later taken out from
the hotel with series of speculations flying around.
“Some people
said he was strangled to death by unknown people, while some said he was killed
by a chemical substance which he inhaled via a handkerchief. What all
these means is that his death may have a political undertone.
“We were told
that he had a misunderstanding with someone in the party over the chairmanship
seat, as he wanted to return to the office while other candidates are coming
out”.
There were
also speculations that he died of Magun, certain death arising if a man makes
love to a charmed woman.
The PDP
chieftain had three wives in his lifetime. But none was living with him at
the time of his death. The man was staying alone without any woman living with
him as at the time he died.
