Despite denial statements from the South African Police, video from Bellville, Cape Town appears to show officers strangling and suffocating Chika Ibe, a Nigerian from Abia State.
Chika Ibe later died.
The Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) has opened an investigation into the incident.
Goodmorning @TunjiDisu1@PoliceNG@PoliceNG_CRU this is a Yoruba police officer telling a nigerian citizen that he is lucky he isnt igbo if not he will be detained simply because the citizen refused to give him bribes because he committed no crime. This is the bigoted officer you employ and then expect Igbo people to believe in 1 Nigeria. Shame on you.

I have followed with deep sorrow and mounting concern the reports surrounding the death of Miss Mary Habila, a 26-year-old Nigerian from Nok, Southern Kaduna, who died on June 27, 2026, within the private residence of the Honourable Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, in Uburu, Ebonyi State.
First, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Habila family. No family should have to mourn a daughter taken in the prime of her life while also fighting simply to learn the truth of how she died.
But condolences are not enough. Nigerians deserve answers, and it is on this score that the Tinubu administration has failed, comprehensively and disgracefully.
Consider the facts that are not in dispute. A young woman died in the residence of a serving Federal Minister. For nearly two weeks, neither the Minister, nor the police, nor any arm of government said a word to the Nigerian people. It took the courage of Sahara Reporters to bring this death into public view. Three weeks after her death, no autopsy has been performed. No cause of death has been established. The investigation remains domiciled in the very state where the Minister served two terms as Governor and where his influence is beyond question.
And through all of this, silence from the Presidency. Silence from the Federal Executive Council. Silence from the Inspector-General of Police. Silence from the National Assembly. Not one word. Not one directive. Not one gesture to assure Nigerians that the life of Mary Habila matters to this government.
Instead, the Minister has been permitted to manage the narrative of a death that occurred under his own roof: issuing statements through his personal aides, deploying his private lawyers to correspond with the police, and continuing his official duties as though nothing has happened, while civil society groups, youth organisations, and the family’s own community cry out for an independent inquiry.
Let me be clear: I make no pronouncement on anyone’s guilt or innocence. That is precisely the point. Only a credible, independent, and transparent investigation can establish the truth, and it is the refusal of the Federal Government to guarantee such an investigation that constitutes the scandal before us.
A government’s first duty is the protection of life. Where a life is lost in circumstances touching a high official of state, the burden on government to act transparently is at its heaviest.
President Tinubu’s administration has instead treated this tragedy as an inconvenience to be waited out. If the death of a young Nigerian woman in a Minister’s residence cannot stir this government to act, then Nigerians must ask: whose life, exactly, does this government value?
I therefore demand the following: One, President Bola Tinubu must direct the Honourable Minister of Works to step aside immediately, pending the conclusion of investigations. This is not a punishment; it is the minimum standard of public accountability in any serious democracy. No official under this cloud should preside over a federal ministry as though it were business as usual.
Two, the Inspector-General of Police must immediately transfer the investigation from the Ebonyi State Command to Force Headquarters, with the involvement of independent forensic experts. No investigation conducted in the shadow of the Minister’s home-state influence can command public confidence.
Three, a full, independent, and internationally credible autopsy must be conducted without further delay, with the findings made public. The stalemate over the post-mortem, three weeks after this young woman’s death is an indictment of every institution involved.
Four, the family of Mary Habila must be protected from any pressure, inducement, or intimidation, and must be guaranteed unfettered access to the facts of their daughter’s death.
I won't stop posting this picture until either I'm arrested or the government do the right thing.
This is a health center in a community in Ebonyi State.
This is not fair to the people!
- he increased NECO from 30,000 to 50,000
- he removed general electricity subsidy
- he increased tertiary institution’s tuition fees
- he also increased international passport fees from 50,000 to 100,000 last year
Nigerians are being priced out of basic civic entitlements. This is bad leadership!!
Get your PVC!!!
The 2026 World Cup is presently ongoing. Nigeria failed to qualify for the World Cup but the National Sports commission budgeted 6,440,000,000 ($4.6 million) as “Special presidential support group for 2026 World Cup qualifiers”
How???
Seyi Tinubu flaunts in the club every weekend with luxury cars.
Habibat Tinubu lives a glamorous lifestyle in the U.S. She bought an apartment in NYC for over 2 million dollars when she was just 22.
Zainab Tinubu has no work we know of, yet she also bought an apartment in New York when she was just 25.
Your entire family siphons off Nigeria’s wealth. The only time you are seen helping the poor is when you want to use them for political gain.
We must remove this family from Aso Rock whether they like it or not.
Omoh, update o, the lady has released the CCTV footage which she claims captures the moment EFCC operatives br0ke into their apartment. Omoh just take a look at this !! Shame catch me on their behalf💔💔
