Peters said Kodak “was said to be electrocuted, her phone was found on her chest, with severe burn marks, and the phone’s imprint on her chest.
The witnesses were taken to the Ojodu Police Headquarters straight from the hospital where statements were taken, and the phone (which had traces of burnt flesh on it) was deposited.”

The Lagos state police spokesperson, Bala Elkana confirmed to the Guardian that Peters was being questioned along with a few others.
“It is a full investigation. We are probably looking at murder. We are not concluding at this stage. If she died of electrocution according to reports, it is left for us to find out. Was she actually electrocuted? What went wrong? An autopsy will also show”, he said.
