Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, had an interview with BBC Pidgin recently. In the interview, he announced that they are conducting an investigation to determine the cause of Kambilinachukwu’s death. Kambili was the son of actor Yul Edochie. According to Hundeyin, the 16-year-old passed away on March 30th after falling unconscious and being taken to a clinic for medical attention. Despite the efforts of the doctors to resuscitate him, they were unsuccessful.
According to Hundeyin, Yul reported the occurrence to the police at a station near his home and has since filed a statement concerning the passing of his kid. The police spokesman said-
“He just reported the case and we have begun an investigation. By tomorrow (Friday) it will be transferred to state CID. We will investigate what killed the boy. They have to do an autopsy and know what happened to him,” he said.
“The incident happened in the school, but we can’t tell you what happened to him right now until an autopsy is performed.”
