Reports said Mrs Olusola spent about 34 years in the United Kingdom before returning to Nigeria last year to focus on the hospitality business.

It was further learnt that she was already planning to return to her base when tragedy struck.

Her body was discovered by her 12-year-old son and one of the culprits has already been arrested by the police.

The police were said to have also recovered the rope used to strangle them.

The Punch reports that two of the workers sacked by Mrs Olusola conspired with some still in her employment to commit the dastardly act.

They were alleged to have deactivated the Circuit Television cameras on the premises, dragged the manager into a toilet, where his hands and feet were tied. The bandits then strangled Tunji after which they proceeded to Olusola’s room and strangled her too.

According to a family source,

“The incident happened on Thursday night cum Friday morning. I was called that my sister had been murdered by the boys working for her in the hotel.
“From what I learnt, the manager had dragged one of them, called Light, to a police station for involvement in fraud in the hotel. There were also cases of stealing involving these guys. Two of them were sacked.

“On Thursday night, the men tied Tunji’s hands and feet and strangled him. I think it was after they had killed Tunji that they got access to the card that opens my sister’s room. They went to her bed, tied her up and strangled her.”
