A man identified as Eric and his yet-to-be identified girlfriend have been found dead at an apartment located at Ayeyemi area of Ondo town in Ondo state.
The lifeless bodies of the lovers were reportedly found stuck together.
The deceased were reportedly found dead by relatives who checked on them when the man did not answer his phone calls.
They were said to have looked through a window, spotted the bodies, and broke down the door to gain entry into the apartment.
