Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has urged Nigerians to remain calm and allow security agencies to complete their investigation into the death of Mary Habila, a member of the medical support team attached to the Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi.
The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation also dismissed calls for the minister’s resignation or stepping aside as premature, stressing that no one should be prejudged before the facts are established.
In a statement issued on Friday and signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Ezechi Chukwu, on behalf of President-General Senator Azuta Mbata, Ohanaeze expressed deep sorrow over Habila’s death and extended condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues.
“We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, colleagues and loved ones over this painful and irreparable loss. The death of such a young and promising Nigerian is a tragedy to all men and women of good conscience,” the statement read in part.
