A Ghanaian man identified as Kassim Awudu and his Nigerian girlfriend have been found dead in their apartment in Morocco.
According to multiple reports, friends of the deceased went to check on him after several unsuccessful attempts to reach him. With the assistance of the landlord, they forced open the apartment door and discovered the couple lifeless inside.
The cause of death remains unknown, as efforts continue to trace and inform their families.
A resident in Morocco, speaking in an interview with Kofi TV, said no official cause of death has been established. He added that news of the incident began circulating after images of the deceased surfaced online.
“He lives with his girlfriend, and the two of them died in the room, but it appears they may have died about three days before they were discovered. So, they called the landlord to break the door, and after forcing entry, they realized both of them were dead.
“All the people in the apartment ran away due to documentation issues, fearing the police would come and interrogate them.
“The police later came for their bodies and are now looking for his family,” he said.
Authorities are yet to release further details as investigations continue.
