House Help discloses last discussion with late boss, Konga CEO
…Said he left the shower running
Following the shocking death news of Nick Imudia, the former Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian e-commerce giant, Konga, his domestic staff, (name withheld) has revealed what she discussed with her late boss before the news of his death escalated the previous week.
According to reports, the house help said late Imudia invited her a day earlier for a chat. According to the maid, the deceased handed her a piece of paper with five telephone numbers, including that of his brother in the United States of America.
According to the deceased’s friend, “She said Nick told her to keep the numbers, that she would need them at the appropriate time. Thereafter, she said he went into the bathroom and heard the shower running, indicating that he was having a bath.
“She said after some time, she observed that the shower was still running and wondered what he could still be doing for so long. She knocked on the door, but there was no response and she left.
“Moments later, she said the private guard knocked on the door and informed her to come and see what had happened to Nick. She rushed downstairs and found him in a horrible state. Immediately, she rushed upstairs and still met the shower running. By the time she opened the door, she discovered there was nobody there.”
This is even as the family had requested his body for a funeral burial.
The family has argued that the former CEO of Konga did not commit suicide as alleged, saying that “he never showed any signs of stress and was never diagnosed as depressed at any point.”
Detectives at the Homicide section of the State Criminal Investigative Department, Yaba, Lagos, investigating the cause of the death were expecting some of those invited for questioning as at 11a.m on Monday, 1st July, 2024.
