The police command in Lagos State has initiated an investigation into the death of Nick Imudia, the former Chief Executive Officer of Konga, one of Nigeria’s prominent e-commerce giants.
According to the Daily Post, detectives from the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) visited the scene of the incident to consult a forensic analysis of the items found there.
Recall, MyNigeria reported that Imudia was serving as the CEO of D.light, a leading innovator in residential solar energy solutions at the time of his death.
News Central TV reports that Imudia reportedly killed himself on the night of Tuesday, June 25, after jumping from the balcony of his Lekki apartment. The report indicated that he spoke to his US-based brother to explain how his wealth should be distributed should anything happen to him.
According to the report, he reached out to his daughter, telling her he would always be there for her and that she needed to look in the sky to see him.
The news of his demise has left family, friends, and associates in shock.
Nick Imudia hailed from Ika South Local Government Area of Delta State. He was married to the mother of his young daughter, who was also from the same local government, but their marriage ended due to irreconcilable differences.
He later married a Caucasian woman, and many believed he had achieved personal and professional fulfilment.
