A gay suspect identified as Kelvin Momodu has reportedly been murdered by suspected cultists after he was caught in the act of homosexual practice with his lover,one Maxwell Egbomiade Nasser on May 24th 2022 in a remote hotel in Benin City.
The Nigerian OBSERVER gathered that the said date of May 24th was the birthday of Maxwell Egbomiade Nasser as both lovers agreed to enjoy each other in a remote hotel without prying eyes seeing them.
Unfortunately,the two lovers were caught off guard by a staff of the hotel while having anal sex,which according to information made available to the Nigerian OBSERVER, was immediately reported to the management of the hotel who invited youths of the community to the hotel to witness the unfolding sacrilege.
According to an eyewitness account who pleaded anonymity, the two gay lovers were brutally beaten by the angry youths who unleashed their anger on them for desecrating their land.
The Nigerian OBSERVER further gathered that one of the gay lovers was however lucky to have escaped from the scene of crime as it was reported that Maxwell Egbomiade Nasser was assisted by a yet to be identified person to escape from the scene at the hotel.
However,it was not the same story for Kelvin Momodu as it was later reported that he was not spared by the angry youths,some of whom were dangerous members of Black Axe confraternity, and was later confirmed dead by the police.
Meanwhile, the police at the time of this report in a statement made available to the Nigerian OBSERVER said that it has received report of alleged homosexual practice by two suspects whose names were given as Kelvin Momodu and Maxwell Egbomiade Nasser in a remote hotel in Benin City.
The statement further stated that while it has commenced investigation into the heinous murder of one of the homosexual suspects by unknown cultists, efforts have been intensified to arrest all the suspects involved in the murder of Kelvin Momodu.
It further added that one 32 years old Maxwell Egbomiade Nasser who was the second gay suspect was still at large as concerted efforts have been made with other security agencies and local vigilantes to arrest the fleeing suspect who is the prime suspect in the reported homosexual case which led to murder.
