Adegoke, who was until his death the Director of Finance of Xiamien Stone Limited, Abuja, had traveled to Ile-Ife on Friday, November 5, 2021, to write his last examination.
According to the investigation, he flew from Abuja to Akure, Ondo State, and later proceeded by road to Ile-Ife. He chose to lodge at Hilton Hotels and Resort where he died mysteriously and was subsequently buried in a nearby bush.
Meanwhile the IRT has rejected the second autopsy report presented to it by the doctors who conducted a post mortem on the exhumed body of the deceased.
The Police unit according to insider sources said that the report is not acceptable to the Police due to the fact that family members of the deceased were not contacted during the conduct if he autospy.
It would be recalled that there were reports on Thursday that the office of the Inspector-General of Police iGP had received the autopsy report by the doctors who carried out the post mortem but there is no formal communication to the IRT on it.
The Police detectives attached to the intelligence unit are still conducting investigations into the remote and proximate cause of the dastardly act and had vowed that no stone will be left unturned to apprehend the culprits.
