Words:Adedosu 'kenzy' Adekunle
It was a disastrous scene,Although details are sketchy for now,but report reaching us confirmed that "Susan Yusuf", popularly known as Suzy Q, the lady who owns "SQ Lounge" was recently in the news about ending her "Jonzing Club" partnership with "D’Prince" of "MO HITS", was stabbed to death at her flat at 1004 flats in Victoria Island Last night on Friday February 10,2012.
Speaking to journalists, the estate security this morning, confirmed Susan’s death, saying the sad event occurred at about 9:30PM last night. Apparently, the night club owner had screamed for help when things took a violent turn with Idris who sources claim is a regular visitor to her residence, but not even her next door neighbour, popular "Mo’Hits" singer "Wande Coal", could come to her aid as the music in his apartment we’re told, was pretty loud.
Investigations further revealed that the couple had been in all evening then all of a sudden an argument ensued. Idris then began stabbing Suzy with a bread knife.
The deceased lived in flat 606 in block D5. We’re told Wande Coal lives in flat 608.
"She was shouting Wande’s name but the music as usual was too loud for him to hear", one resident tells us.
Wande Coal was unreachable at the time of this report; we however saw General Pype walk past room 606 and entered room 607. Another resident tells us when Wande found out what was going on, he tried to intervene.
Idris, we’re told, jumped from the 6th floor when residents tried to apprehend him. He landed and died on the spot. ‘The guy is her boyfriend. He usually comes and sleeps over, buys groceries and rides her car’, another resident tells us.
Both bodies have been taken to the mortuary.
"Suzy doesn’t really stay at home around that time. We are all still surprised why she was at home at that time, knowing she leaves the house around 5 or 6PM and returns at about 7AM in the morning", a security guard who would rather remain anonymous tells us.
<b>"She died in the elevator as neighbours tried rushing her to the hospital, she was bleeding and holding on to her sides as her entrails were clearly spilling out but gave up the ghost".
An eye witness tells us:
‘This is a very very sad situation’> said one resident. ‘The whole estate is beyond shocked, the manner of violence is unbelievable’.
When we visited the 1004 Apartments this morning, normal activities in the estate had resumed.
The Nigerian Police Force from the Bar Beach police division have however paid a visit to the murder scene and obtained the key to the late club owner’s Prado Jeep (license number CP630-AKD).
Upon questioning, the Police remained mum on the case. ‘Please get in touch with our P.R.O’, an officer who refused to disclose his name told NET. We later saw them pumping the deflated tyres of the deceased’s Prado Jeep. We’re told the jeep would be taken over to the station.
Suzy’s was the owner of SQ Lounge, a Lagos-based night club. The club was briefly renamed Club Jonzing last year, following a partnership with pop star D’Prince.
Her close friends say prior to yesterday’s tragic event, she was planning a ‘Table for two’ Valentine’s Day dinner at SQ Lounge.
Her flat has now been sealed off by the police.
UPDATE:
We have just visited SQ Lounge. The atmosphere, unexpectedly, sober and the property is under lock and key. But we were able to get info from security staff who say the deceased was at the club yesterday. We’re told she stopped by briefly,then left for home, telling her staff she would be back.
‘Madam and Idris were like 5 and 6. They would drive each other’s cars. They still had lunch together here on Thursday’, a security staff tells us.
Another source says Suzy’s relatives have been contacted but are, surprisingly, reluctant to come see her.
We’re also told, reliably, that her body was rejected by several hospitals when they rushed her there.
