The deceased was identified as 55-year-old Gaddafi Iwar, a Tiv man believed to have worked as a labourer at a construction site within the complex.

His remains were discovered inside a red Peugeot 406 with registration number BWR-577 BF around 9:00 a.m.

The body was first taken to the National Assembly Clinic for medical checks before being moved to Asokoro General Hospital.

However, the hospital refused to accept it due to the advanced stage of decomposition.

Members of the Tiv community and youth leaders later transported the body to Gbawu Village, a border town between AMAC and Kuje Area Council, where it was buried to avoid any health risk.
