An eyewitness, who is also the wife of the landlord, Mrs Sabaina Ogundeji narrated to The Town Crier News Nigeria “In  the morning, Ojo set fire under the staircase of the house and said nobody should  put it off. But with the help of people on the street, it was put off.

“In the evening, everybody was outside playing. So, Ojo went in and brought out his clothes and set them on fire. He later went inside and locked himself up in the room and set it on fire. It was his voice we heard when he was shouting. People ran there to force the door open and brought him out. But he later died in the hospital in an undisclosed hospital.”

Also, a man who pleaded anonymity  mentioned in print said, “ When we rescued Ojo, he was not yet dead. He told us that he set the house on fire because some people  were making jest of him because of his challenge.

“His remains has been deposited at the morgue in the state hospital, Ondo,” he said.
