A cousin of Mr. Raphael Ige yesterday alleged in Kano that the retired Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG) died as a result of poisoning. In an interview with reporters in Kano, Mr. Sunday Alu called for an enquiry into the death of Ige, saying: "There is more to the death of Ige than meets the eyes." Ige was retired after he led a team of policemen to abduct Governor Chris Nwabueze Ngige of Anambra State last year. However, renewed efforts to unseat Ngige are still ruffling feathers within the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP), the police and the judiciary. Alu, who is a Kano-based journalist, remarked that it would not be surprising if masterminds of the Ngige saga were the ones behind the sudden death of Ige. Noting that Ige was hale and hearty as at last week, he asserted that the late police chief must have been poisoned after a recent trip to Lagos. According to him, Ige was hale and hearty before he travelled to Lagos last week. "When I contacted his residence in Lokoja, I was told that he developed headache around 11 p.m. on Monday evening. Before he was rushed to the hospital, he gave up the ghost. "This is BiafraNigeria, it could be that as he wanted to open up, some persons who felt he would expose them decided to eliminate him,"..... (Guardian) |
