The Ogun State Police Command has arrested Kelvin Michael, over the death of a married woman and mother of five, Monsurat Idowu, who slumped and died after a sex romp.
The 40-year-old married woman was said to have collapsed and later confirmed dead after a sex romp with her unmarried lover, who is said to be 28 years old.
According to the spokesman of the Ogun State Police Command, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, in a statement on Thursday, the case was reported by Benjamin Okereke of the Ogun State Specialist Hospital in Ota.
Okereke was said to have reported to the police that the suspect brought Idowu to the hospital dead and could not explain the circumstance surrounding her death.
Oyeyemi that when the case was reported, the Divisional Police Officer in charge of Onipanu Division, SP Sangobiyi Johnson, led his men to the hospital, where the man was promptly arrested.
He said in the statement: “On interrogation, the suspect claimed to have met the deceased in July in a bus at Ketu, Lagos State, and that they exchanged phone numbers.
“He stated further that he invited her to the house of his friend in Ota, where the deceased suddenly slumped and died shortly after they finished having sexual intercourse.”
The husband of the deceased, who is a commercial bus driver, Lamidi Idowu, told the police that he left his wife in the house hale and hearty when he left for work that morning, wondering what might have led to her untimely death.
Oyeyemi said the state Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu, had ordered the immediate transfer of the case to homicide section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department at Eleweran, Abeokuta.
He added that the remains of the deceased had been deposited at the hospital mortuary for post-mortem examination.

More than 2,000 individuals from the Ikeja Police Barracks community benefited from an impactful outreach program spearheaded by Young Professionals for Tinubu (YP4T), an advocacy and support group working in alignment with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The initiative provided critical medical services, care packages, food supplies, and financial assistance to widows, wives, and vulnerable residents, demonstrating the heart of nation-building through community-centered support.
The program, which united healthcare professionals, community organizers, and volunteers, complemented the government’s broader efforts to bring essential services closer to the people.
Residents of the Ikeja Police Barracks received free medical consultations, blood pressure and diabetes screenings, and wellness advice. Widows and families also left with care packages filled with food items, toiletries, and financial support to help alleviate the pressures of the holiday season.
Dr. Love V. Tinuoye, CEO of Medvita Consultancy and the lead doctor on-site, reflected on the impact:
“This initiative reflects a collective commitment to advancing healthcare in Nigeria. We were able to screen for and address critical health issues such as hypertension and diabetes while also providing preventive care like vaccinations and cancer screenings. This is what true community-focused care looks like.”
Beyond medical services, the outreach distributed care packages containing food staples, toiletries, and financial support, designed to alleviate the challenges faced by vulnerable members of the police barracks community.
The event highlights the ongoing efforts under the Renewed Hope Agenda to provide inclusive support for Nigerians across the country. Initiatives like this not only extend access to essential services but also strengthen the fabric of communities.
Mrs. Jumoke Elom, a businesswoman and beneficiary, shared her gratitude:
“I am deeply grateful for this program. The care my family received today—both medical and material—has given us hope and reminded us that we are not alone. It shows that there is real support for families like mine.”
The outreach program was also a platform for demonstrating the principles of nation-building through collaborative action. Alex Oware, Security Expert and Director of YP4T, explained the motivation behind the initiative: “The Renewed Hope Agenda is about about bringing real transformation to communities. This initiative embodies that vision by supporting over 2,000 people—not just through tangible resources, but by reaffirming their place in the collective growth of our nation. It lies at the soul of Renewed Hope: fostering resilience and creating opportunities for all Nigerians.”
The outreach program extended beyond healthcare, providing food and financial support to families within the police barracks. A touching moment involved a widow who, after receiving her care package, expressed her gratitude with tears of joy. Her story is just one of many that reflect the transformative power of collective action.
This initiative by YP4T—an advocacy and support group of Nigerian professionals from across the globe—represents a continued commitment to driving grassroots impact, inspired by President Tinubu’s vision. The success of the Ikeja outreach program demonstrates the power of collaboration between the public and private sectors to deliver meaningful change across Nigeria.
