According to sources, "She actually arrived the hotel alone and after undertaking some check-in formalities, she entered the room and locked herself up.
"She never came out of her room again either to ask for food or any other thing. So, at exactly 6 p.m, a room attendant knocked on her door to find out if she was interested in being attended to by room service.
"Her silence aroused suspicion and the room attendant, who repeated his call to the room at 8pm without reply, alerted the Manager on duty.
"It was at that point that the Management alerted the Police who moved in and broke into the room and discovered the lifeless body of the lady in a position that suggested she was making a call before her death.
Sources said the deceased had on her, a small purse which contained a Bible, rosary and N8,200. A bottle of water and a bottle of soft drink were also discovered in the room.
The Benue State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Deputy Superintendent, DSP, Daniel Ezeala who confirmed the incident said investigation into the matter was ongoing.
