A commercial sex worker, Janet Etim, has died after being
beaten by one of her customers for reportedly failing to see
their sexual encounter through to the end. The incident
occurred at the De Love Hotel in Ejigbo, Lagos.
The client allegedly paid Janet for what is known in sex
worker's parlance as 'short time'. He then proceeded to carry
on for longer than expected, tiring the prostitute in the
process. The sex worker, unable to continue with the
insatiable client reportedly returned the N500 he paid and
refused to go on, but he rejected it. This resulted in a quarrel,
during which the man attacked her and caused her a head
injury.
She was taken to the hospital but died on Tuesday, January
24th, 2017. The body of the deceased has been deposited at
the Isolo General Hospital while the client who attacked her
is currently on the run.
Police at Ejigbo have arrested the hotel manager, Prince
Bassey and the deceased's sister who brought her to Lagos
for prostitution, Eberline Okon, for failing to report the death
to the authorities.
