Tanko Habila, father of the late nurse, Mary Habila, who died at the residence of the Minister of Works, has petitioned the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Tunji Disu, asking for the release of her daughter’s bday for burial.
Habila, in the company of his wife and other family members with their lawyers, addressed the press after submitting the petition on Friday at the police Headquarters in Abuja.
Expressing his sadness over the issue, he said that almost two weeks after his daughter’s death, the Ebonyi State Police Command had refused to release her body for burial.
In his speech, he said the family was not interested in carrying out any autopsy.
“As we are standing here, somebody can fall and die. It has happened. All we want is her body to be buried.”
