"Ask yourself, what would make a father whose 26 year old daughter died under questionable circumstances - naked with peeling skin on her thighs and injury on her tongue and blood on her body - in the house of a government official in a far away village, to publicly say he does not want to find out what killed his baby girl????? If you ponder deeply on this, you’d agree with me that whatever it is, is certainly and definitely not normal. Something is wrong somewhere.
But make no mistakes, if Nigerians end up not knowing what killed Ms. Mary Habila, it will not be just because the father objected to an autopsy, it will be mainly because the Nigerian State represented by the Nigeria Police Force chose not to carry out an autopsy FOR REASONS WE ALL KNOW.
Even Ojiugo my two weeks old daughter knows that in cases of suspicious, sudden, unnatural or unexplained death, the state (through the police, coroners, or relevant authorities) has the right as well as OBLIGATION to conduct an autopsy even without the consent of the family of the deceased. Matter of fact, even in cases where the family rushes to bury the deceased as Ms. Habila’s family is planning on doing, the govt can still exhume the body to carry out the autopsy or even a coroner’s inquest which is usually more elaborate. And we both know that if this did not involve a powerful govt official, the attorney general of Ebonyi state or that of the federation would have since taken the necessary step to do the needful. Remember, the lady died SINCE JUNE 27 (nearly THREE WEEKS AGO) but it took Sahara Reporters breaking the news last week for the public to know.
In a matter of PUBLIC INTEREST such as the matter under review where a NIGERIAN CITIZEN died in a private residence of someone not related to her family, a govt that is not given to COVER-UPs would have since taken measures to treat this as a POTENTIAL crime.
That man may have sired the late Habila but her life was never his. The DUTY of govt includes protecting people even from themselves which is why someone can be prosecuted for attempting to take their own life. This is also why in cases of murder, the state can go ahead to prosecute the suspect even when the deceased family chose to forgive. It’s about DUTY the govt owes to the society it is presiding over. So let’s be clear, nothing the father of Habila says or does will prevent the govt from carrying out its duty of establishing what killed one of its citizens.
The problem is that we are dealing with a criminally irresponsible morally bankrupt political bandits masquerading as a govt. This is why they are trying to hide under the father to shy away from their DUTY to the Nigerian people. Ironically, it’s actually in the best interest of Senator Engineer David Nweze Umahi, CON that an autopsy is carried out. Five Engineers from NELAN Consulting limited disappeared since 2021 just after a disagreement with him as governor of Ebonyi over a AfDB funded ring road in the state and till today, the Nigerian authorities have continued to engage in criminal cover-up instead of getting to the root of that matter. Now they want to add this lady to the numerous cases of suspicious deaths and disappearances under the same man.
A shame, is it not?"

Dave Umahi and the 5 Missing NELAN Engineers.
The firm assigned five of its best engineers to the project. They were:
• Engr. Nelson Onyemeh — Lead Consultant/CEO of NELAN Consultants, from Ihiala, Anambra State.
• Engr. Ernest Edeani — From Nkanu, Enugu State.
• Engr. Ikechukwu Ejiofor — From Umunya, Anambra State.
• Engr. Samuel Aneke — From Nkanu, Enugu State.
• Engr. Stanley Nwazulum — From Amawbia, Anambra State.
During the course of the project, serious tensions reportedly arose between NELAN and the Umahi administration over project control and payments. According to the families of the five engineers, the Umahi government allegedly wanted NELAN to "take a back seat" so the state could exercise direct control, issue payment certificates, and give instructions to contractors.
The then-Governor Dave Umahi reportedly wanted NELAN to sign or approve certificates of satisfactory completion for work supervised or executed by other engineers and contractors. NELAN allegedly refused, arguing that doing so would violate the AfDB contract terms, breach its professional obligations, and risk the firm, and possibly the project—being blacklisted by the AfDB.
On November 3, 2021, the five engineers left Enugu for Ebonyi State in an official Toyota Hilux (registration number ERR 001 EB) for site supervision. They never returned, and, to this day, neither they nor their remains have been found.
What happened to the five NELAN engineers?
It was at that moment I knew it was over for England. Even Elliot Anderson saw it too.
That nod was personal. Just don’t get Messi angry. https://t.co/ZkiWPcbEUa
Burna BOY just crossed the LINE . 🤦♂️💔💔💔
He just reminded Wiz of his late mum.
While explaining what happened , he said no one else beat Dj Tunez except him and if he is lying God should take his mother to where Wizkid’s Mum is.
This is wrong, we know how wiz has struggled to heal from this and you reminding him of it just because of funny beef is crazy .
Beef should have limits.
Internet drama is not good, other people always get hurt.
😂😂😂😂 Verydarman has filed a petition against Blessing CEO for deceiving the public and obtaining money under false pretense.
Accountability is very important.
Criminality shouldn't be encouraged.
