The result of Tagbo's autopsy from the Medical Examiner's office shows that the major cause of 35-yr-old Tagbo Umeike was alcohol.The autopsy also shows that the friend of Davido and boyfriend of Caroline Danjuma had drugs and alcohol capable of driving someone
into the early stages of hypothermia and eventual death.The test on toxicology carried out on Tagbo shows alcohol (Bacardi 151, 75.5% Alcohol) and topiramate, a medication for epilepsy and/or migraines in a man’s system, in his body.Tagbo's blood-alcohol concentration was at 0.112,a rate higher than the 0.08 limit for a normal human being.Tagbo's family although claimed that Tagbo “didn’t have a prescription for any type of topiramate medication”,the office of the coroner revealed that the amount of drug in Tagbo's body was in “therapeutic range.”
The coroner's statement reads; “Alcohol and topiramate are synergistic. When combined, the effect of either or both drugs is enhanced.Topiramate, like alcohol, can cause dizziness, impaired memory, impaired concentration, poor coordination, confusion and impaired judgment".
“Central nervous system depression, or impairment, combined with cold exposure can hasten the onset of hypothermia and death".
