The middle-aged man identified as Eric and his unidentified girlfriend were found in a house located in the Ayeyemi area of Ondo town, Ondo State.
The lifeless bodies of lovers were reportedly found stuck together in the room on Thursday, June 13.
As reported by Nigerian Tribune, a source said the lovers were found in a position, indicating that they were making love before the tragic incident.
The source said the two secret lovers were separated by a medical doctor, who confirmed them dead.
The death of the lovers was attributed to an electric shock during the sex romp.
“The generator was running in the premises while they were charging their phone and a socket was placed closer to the bed. The naked wire might had contact with the bed resulting in the electric shock,” said the witness.
Another source said the lovers were found dead by relatives the following day after they failed to answer their calls.
The relatives broke the door after they found the lovers in that position through the window.
The state police public relations officer, Funmi Odunlami, who confirmed the tragic incident said the police have commenced an investigation to unravel the cause of their death.
