The bishop, Timothy Otu of the Agape Evangelical Ministry, was said to have checked into the hotel and invited his lover, while they engaged in an overnight tryst.
Under the cover of the night, their rendezvous took an alarming twist, culminating in the woman’s lifeless body being discovered the following morning.

An Islamic cleric, Sheikh Abdulmojeed, who condemned the killing and butchering of Bosede who was killed in Akure, lamented the high increase in marriage infidelity nowadays as women no longer respect their husbands.
“When I heard the confession of the man, which he made at the police station claiming to be responsible for the ripping of the woman’s intestine, I wept for the deceased for wasting her life out of impatience, immediate gain, and covetousness.”
A marriage counselor, Dunni Ajiboye, described Bosede’s death as a callous action and he did not know the evil spirit that engulfed the man
She said; “Infidelity in the home is very severe but also rampant. Truth be told, both men and women are involved in extra-marital affairs almost with impunity.
“Wives who are exposed to a parent having an affair are twice as likely to have an affair themselves.”
In the case of the victims, she said that it would serve as a deterrence to others who are still indulging in such an act.
A Facebook user, Tolu Agbaje, cautioned couples against having affairs outside their home as the world is now delicate.
Commenting on the bishop’s sex romp, Agbaje simply said, “Truly, judgment starts from the house of God.
“Every day we see people criticizing and making a mockery of the body of Christ but know this and know peace. God cannot be mocked,” he said.
