Mary had worked with him for three years as a staff seconded from David Umahi Federal University of Health Sciences. She was in the residence with a colleague for official duties. Umahi described her as “like a daughter” and said she had long been under his family’s care, including medical treatment at Turkish Hospital.
According to Umahi, Mary spoke to her boyfriend shortly before her death and complained of bleeding from the nose. The boyfriend ended the call because he feared the conversation might worsen the bleeding. When he called back three minutes later, she did not respond. By morning, staff broke her door and found her dead, with the bathroom tap still running.
Umahi said medical help was called immediately and the police were informed. He denied any cover up and criticised attempts to politicise the incident, stressing that the guest house where Mary stayed was far from his own living quarters.
He said the family has refused an autopsy, claiming it is against their culture, but he has instructed his lawyers to insist on it to determine the true cause of death. Umahi described the loss as painful and said Mary was one of his best workers.
He added that only God will resolve the matter if the family continues to reject an autopsy.
The rich also cry 😢
ReplyDeleteThe law is for the poor. A poor man would have been in police custody by now..
I dey tell you.
DeleteOzikwa physio na ewi now, it use to be private chef before
ReplyDeleteSo many questions, but unfortunately, we may never get the answers.
ReplyDeleteI really like how he’s being called out by Nigerians especially by his own people. I think this is one of the things I love most about the Igbo tribe. Irrespective of your status, political position, or financial weight, once you misbehave, you will be held accountable. We do not condone mediocrity or evil.
The other time it was a woman known as Madam Tracy. Today, a lady has mysteriously died in his country home. And let’s not even start with the five NELAN engineers who went missing over 10 years ago under his watch.
There are so many controversies associated with him. Sadly, nothing will be done about any of these.

No need to respond to the thrash you wrote in your 2nd paragraph, so Hausas, Ijaws, Yoruba etc. don't call out their leaders !!!.
DeleteI don't know what you're saying. I wrote on my tribe and I didn't mention yours or attack yours. You can do that yourself. It's that simple

That is the true meaning of "Igbo enwe Eze".
DeleteNo matter your level, once you fuck up, we will drag you without respecting your status.
Teejay, don’t stop putting his past out there. Don’t let anybody come with distraction tactics to get you off course. If this entity has a record of death and disappearance surrounding him let it out.
DeleteHer family refused autopsy?
ReplyDeleteYes. And that is their conviction, no one has the right to shame them. BTW why are you acting like its unusual? Afterall you have heard of people that refuse blood transfusion.
DeleteThere are a lot of unanswered questions here…
ReplyDeleteBut then again, the law is only for the poor!
May her soul rest in peace.
But how did he have the transcript of her phone conversation with her boyfriend???
ReplyDeleteIt is well
ReplyDeleteIf na poor man now...na inside prison he for dey explain all these..
ReplyDeleteNigeria is a lawless country
Not adding up.
ReplyDeleteWhy will her family refuse an autopsy?
ReplyDeleteI believe they left everything in the hand of God, this is Nigeria the rich decide how it will go.
DeleteThey know that the truth will never come out, so they took their L in peace.
... or probably got paid.
DeleteVery,very unfortunate....
ReplyDeleteSo from 27th June until now he couldn’t put out a statement. She was all that and no honour given to her life. It’s only after he realizes that the authorities are pushing through with their investigation he is crawling from under his rock. Mtsscchhwww

ReplyDeleteOnly God knows the truth
May her gentle soul rest in the bosom of the Lord 🙏.Only God knows what happened to her.
ReplyDeletewe like to politicised everything, the lady might have an underlying health condition, her family knows better. Whilst the death might be sudden and painful,,Umai might not have anything to do with it and the family has the right to stop anyone mutilating the body. You have better chance of fighting for yourself spiritual if you are not mutilated.
