The police were called to the scene where they found bottles of codeine, and several rolls of bhang.
It is suspected that she overdosed on the drugs but investigations are underway to ascertain what killed her.
Codeine is a prescription pain medication used to treat mild to moderate pain but many youths have turned it into a drug. It makes one high and it is addictive.
Some of the side effects of codeine are organ failure and even madness. In 2018 BBC News Africa did a feature to expose the cartels behind the illegal sell of codeine in Nigeria.
