A 55-year-old commercial bus driver has been found dead in a hotel at Ibusa, Oshimili North Local Government Area of Delta State, after allegedly having sex with a single mother of three.

Saturday PUNCH gathered that the deceased was accompanied by a lady into a hotel along Ibusa bypass, close to the Ibusa Police Divisional Headquarters.

A source said the deceased had consumed some energy drinks before checking in into the hotel with the woman in the late hours of Wednesday.
