Raphael Oloye Nomiye, 50,
was until his death a member of the House of Representatives representing Ondo,
Ilaje, Ese Odo in Ondo State under the platform of the Labour Party.
According to source, the
lawmaker was said to have died shortly after an affair with the banker (names

accounts, was said to have rushed down for the one-storey building to inform
the policemen on guard at the house that “oga just fell down and is vomiting
blood.”
Mr. Nomiye, whom the
policemen that entered into the room where the incident occurred said, ‘they
found him lying on the floor with a towel tied round his waist, while he bled
from the mouth. He was then quickly taken to a private clinic but the doctors
at clinic declined to attend to him, saying it was a “serious” matter,
following which he was then rushed to the National Hospital, Abuja, where he
was later pronounced dead.’
Hyelhira Altine, the spokesperson
of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) police command, confirmed the incidents and
disclosed that the banker, is now in police custody at the Gwarinpa Police
Division.
Meanwhile, the banker who earlier denied
having sexual affair with the lawmaker before his death was said to have
changed her statement after doctors at the National Hospital conducted an
examination on corpse, which confirmed that the deceased had slept with a woman
shortly before his demise.
‘’The banker admitted to
interrogators that she had actually slept with the deceased and had helped him
to clean up, following which he went into the bathroom, where he suddenly fell
and began to vomit blood’’ police said.
It was also revealed that although the late
lawmaker was married, his wife and children were not living with him in Abuja,
but two of her professional friends, who spoke on the condition of anonymity,
said the banker and Raphael had been friends.
