Househelp reveals last conversation with Konga ex-CEO, Nick Imudia, before his demise

The maid of the former Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian e-commerce giant, Konga, Nick Imudia, has disclosed the last conversation she had with her boss before news of his death was announced last week.

 

According to a close friend of the deceased who spoke with Vanguard on the condition of anonymity, the maid (name withheld), said late Imudia called her a day earlier and handed her a piece of paper with five telephone numbers, including that of his brother in the United States of America.

 

“She said Nick told her to keep the numbers, that she would need them at the appropriate time. Thereafter, she said he went into the bathroom and heard the shower running, indicating that he was having a bath. She said after some time, she observed that the shower was still running and wondered what he could still be doing for so long. She knocked on the door, but there was no response and she left.

Moments later, she said the private guard knocked on the door and informed her to come and see what had happened to Nick. She rushed downstairs and found him in a horrible state. Immediately, she rushed upstairs and still met the shower on. By the time she opened the door, she discovered there was nobody in there.” the deceased’s friend said

 

Meanwhile, the family, according to the deceased’s friend, had requested the release of Imudia’s body for burial.

 

Over the weekend, the family released a statement in which they ruled out suicide as the cause of his death. According to them, Nick never showed any sign of stress and was never diagnosed as depressed at any point. Read here.

 

The State Criminal Investigative Department, Yaba, Lagos, has since taken over the investigation into the unfortunate incident
