PMB ORDERS THE INVESTIGATION ON THE DEATH OF THREE CORP MEMBERS



In line with the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari,
police authorities have commenced an investigation into the
death of three National Youth Service Corps members who
died while serving in Kano, Zamfara and Bayelsa states.
The President had last week ordered an investigation into the
circumstances that led to the controversial deaths of the
three corps members.
A first class graduate of Transport Management, Ifedolapo
Oladepo, had died during the NYSC orientation in Kano last
week.
Another first class graduate of Petroleum Engineering from
the University of Uyo, Ukeme Monday, reportedly died in
Zamfara State orientation camp of a yet-to-be-ascertained
ailment.
Another serving corps member, Okonta Samuel, was gunned
down by suspected cultists in Rivers State while helping to
facilitate the rerun election.
Our correspondent gathered on Monday that the Inspector-
General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, had directed operatives of the
Special Investigation Panel to carry out a comprehensive
probe of the incidents.
The SIP headed by a retired Assistant Inspector-General of
Police, Ali Amodu, was set up by the IG to handle high profile
investigations in the country.
It was gathered that the panel had already contacted a
renowned pathologist, Dr. Wilson Akhiwu, to assist in the
investigations.
A source disclosed to one of our correspondents that
arrangements had been made for the pathologist to fly to
Abuja from Ibadan, Oyo State, and meet with the police
detectives handling the case.
It was gathered that the investigators would start with the
case of Ifedolapo, who reportedly died of kidney infection.
It was learnt that the police had made arrangements for her
corpse to be exhumed for a thorough medical examination.
The NYSC authorities had claimed that Ifedolapo died of renal
sepsis occasioned by an infection, but the police, it was
gathered, were not convinced by the report, hence the move
to exhume the body for further examination by the
pathologist.
A source said, “A renowned police pathologist, Dr. Wilson
(Akhiwu) would be flying into Abuja from Ibadan by Tuesday
morning (today) to assist with the investigations.
Arrangements have been concluded for the exhumation of
Ifedolapo’s body for a thorough medical examination.
“The probe would present an independent report on what
actually transpired because the NYSC has been giving
conflicting reports. The parents are saying one thing; the
NYSC is saying another thing and the President had ordered
that an investigation should be conducted. The report will be
very comprehensive.”
Meanwhile, the father of Ifedolapo, Mr. Wale Oladepo, has
insisted that his daughter died of negligence by NYSC
officials at the orientation camp.
