He tweeted, “My friend called me to tell me that his sister died at Hustle and Bustle early this morning. I quickly drove to the premises and I met my friend, friends of the deceased and employees of the Hustle and Bustle at the venue.”

Oshoke explained that the deceased family had stormed the club to demand CCTV footage of the event in other to be certain of what led to Susan's death.

He stressed further that “the most astonishing aspect of all this is the fact that the employees keep saying that the manager is the only one with access to the footage and the manager is sleeping.

“We're all gathered at the police station and the management of Hustle and Bustle sent their facility manager to represent them. Not only did they not report the case, but they also didn't accompany the deceased who died on their premises to the hospital. It took the manager seven hours to respond,” he wrote.

The incident has stirred outrage on social media as Nigerians urged the victim's family to sue the club and called on the government to close the facility.

However, the management of the club has responded to the incident in a statement posted on its Instagram page on Monday, declaring the closure of the facility till further notice.
