Ogar Jumbo Ochigbo: What Governor Ortom said about murder of Idoma-born Civil Defence personnel
Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom urges the Inspector General of Police to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death of Mr. Ogar Jumbo Ochigbo, an Assistant Superintendent of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, (NSCDC) who was allegedly murdered in the presence of his wife and children by some police officers near Nyanya market, Abuja on Wednesday this week.
Governor Ortom condemns the killing of Mr Ochigbo, an indigene of the State and calls on the Police Inspector General to ensure that the culprits are brought to justice.
He describes the act as barbaric, heartless, and a violation of the sanctity of human life. He sympathizes with Ochigbo’s wife and kids who went through the trauma of watching their father being murdered in cold blood.
The Governor wonders why officers of different security organisations instead of collaborating to ensure a safer society would engage in an action leading to the loss of life.
Governor Ortom commiserates with the Jumbo Ochigbo family, the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps and the people of Otukpo Local Government Area over the sad loss.
