A 71-year-old man popularly called Baba Jos at Aba Alamu area of Apata, Ibadan, has reportedly died after smoking colorado.
The man, who until his dead was a landlord in the community, died last Sunday after three days in coma.
The old man, who was notorious for being addicted to alcohol and tobacco, fell into coma immediately after taking the drug and eventually gave up the ghost three days after.
Sources at the Aba Alamu community informed that after collecting rents from some of the tenants in the 16-room one- storey building he inherited from his late mother, Baba Jos visited a joint to take alcoholic drinks and cigarettes as usual.
That happened about ten days ago.
At the joint, the old man reportedly
met some boys smoking colorado, and they invited him to join them.
“Baba Jos, who had not tasted the hard drug before agreed and started smoking the stuff, because he was already drunk”, one of the sources explained.
The source further explained that immediately the man smoked the stuff, he started deficating on his own body uncontrollably.
Initially, people at the joint were making jest of him, untill he suddenly fell into coma and was rushed into his house located close to the joint.
“It was unfortunate that the old man did not come out of the coma until he died last week Sunday”, a source who is one of his tenants lamented.
However, when our correspondent visited the joint around 2pm today on Sunday, the place was deserted.
