According to available information, Precious’ relatives became concerned after they were unable to contact her for several days. Her mother subsequently went to the apartment where the woman lived. When nobody answered the door, she had it forcibly opened. Inside, the bodies of all three women were discovered.
According to later reports, the victims were 20, 20, and 22 years old. However, it is not known which of these ages belonged to Precious. The bodies were already showing signs of decomposition, suggesting that the women may have been dead for some time.
A spokesperson for the Delta State Police Command stated that initial suspicions point to poisoning from generator fumes. The generator was reportedly located directly in front of the apartment, and its exhaust may have allowed dangerous gases to enter the living space. However, police have not yet released autopsy or toxicology results that would definitively confirm this theory.
According to accounts from residents of the building, beverage cans, pastry packages, and substances locally referred to as “colos” and “SK” were also found at the scene. Their presence sparked speculation about possible drug use, but no available information confirms that these substances were directly connected to the women’s deaths.
Precious reportedly moved into the building approximately two months before the tragedy. According to local residents, the other two women were not permanent tenants and had only come to visit her.
After the incident was reported, police transported the bodies for further examination. The exact cause and circumstances of all three women’s deaths remain unclear. Investigators have not yet publicly confirmed whether the women were indeed poisoned by carbon monoxide or whether autopsies were ordered.
