A grim scene unfolded on Sunday morning as the decomposed body of a 55-year-old man was discovered in a vehicle parked outside the annex gate of the National Assembly complex, Abuja.
The deceased, identified as Gaddafi Iwar, a Tiv labourer reportedly working at a construction site within the premises, was found lifeless inside a red Peugeot 406 with registration number BWR-577 BF around 9:00 a.m.
Security operatives and medical officials quickly evacuated the body to the National Assembly Clinic, where death was confirmed. Attempts to deposit the remains at Asokoro General Hospital were unsuccessful due to the level of decomposition.
The Tiv community later moved the corpse to Gbawu Village, a border town between AMAC and Kuje Area Council, for burial to avert a possible health risk.
