The head of the Ajoda Idi Okiti community, Chief Bisiriyu Aderemi, told journalists that he saw something floating on the river not knowing it was a human body until he moved closed to it.

He said: "This afternoon (April 6), I was on my way to Iragbiji when I suddenly saw the lifeless body of a yet-to-be-identified man, initially I thought it was a log of wood until I moved closer and later discovered it was a dead body.

"Although my findings showed that he was not mentally stable when he was alive. But nobody can say what could have been the cause of his death."

A police officer from Iludun Police Division, Nurudeen Salami, said they evacuated the dead body following the report they got at the station.
