The Lagos State Police Command has commenced an investigation into the death of two members of a film production crew who were found inside a parked vehicle at a movie set in the Lekki Phase 1 area of Lagos State.
The command’s spokesperson, SP Abimbola Adebisi, disclosed that the incident occurred on Saturday at a filming location within the premises of Evercare Hospital, which was being used for a movie shoot in Lekki.
Police identified the victims as Ekemini Imeh, fondly called Gee Tee, and his colleague, Ayodeji Walter Odediran.
It was gathered that the two crew members arrived early at the location to install lighting equipment ahead of the day’s filming.
After completing their task, they reportedly went into a Nissan vehicle on the premises to rest.
A member of the production team was said to have later brought food to them in the vehicle.

However, as activities continued on the set, repeated attempts by colleagues to reach them by phone were unsuccessful. Their bodies were eventually found inside the car after filming ended for the day.
Adebisi said the case was first reported at the Maroko Police Station and subsequently transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department Panti for a detailed investigation.
The police spokesperson added that autopsy and toxicology examinations have been ordered to establish the cause of death.
The incident comes shortly after the death of gospel singer Matthew Ogundele and three members of his crew, who were recently found dead in a music studio in the Ajah area of Lagos.
