The 23-year old victim whose identity is yet to be ascertained was thrown from the 5th floor of the building after an alleged misunderstanding in the apartment.
Police spokesman Haruna Mohammed, who confirmed the incident, said that the man has been arrested while the corpse of the girl was deposited at the hospital mortuary for autopsy.
Mohammed said:
“On 23/1/2021, there was a report at Awada Police Station that on the same day at about 3:00 am a girl of about 23-year-old whose name and address is yet unknown fell down from the 5th floor of a five-storey building at No. 6 Orakwe Close, Fizzle Awada Obosi in Idemili North LGA of Anambra State.
