Please read his press release below




Gentlemen of the Press

It is with a heavy heart that I address you today on the gruesome murder of my father, Late Rt. Hon. Atoza Ihindan (MFR), who was a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party and caucus chairman of the party in Benue Northeast senatorial district.

As widely reported by most of you, my father had gone out to inspect the perimeter fence of a property within Katsina-Ala town last Friday in company of a police escort and aide before two hired killers who rode on a motorcycle, came and shot him at close range. He died on the spot.

I condemn the dastardly act and call on all well meaning citizens of this country to join me in doing so, particularly that my father did not do anything to warrant being assassinated.

While the police are doing their best to unearth the identity of the killers, I am constrained to state that I strongly suspect Superintendent of Police, Dickson Orlu Pawa, the Chief Security Officer to Governor Samuel Ortom who was the Aide De Camp to former Governor Gabriel Suswam for seven years five months and Mr. Moses Anaana, (alias Anaana J.) as the masterminds of my father's assassination.
I have already filed a petition to the Inspector General of Police stating my reasons why I suspect these men.

I am particularly distressed about the political assassinations in Nigeria. The killing of people because of political differences is reprehensible and does not help our efforts to build democracy in this country. Human life is sacred and those that deprive other humans of their life should be held to account for their crimes. I call on you to assist me to bring the killers of my father to book and to be vigilant so that together we can put away this sad horrendous activity from our national life.

Thank you and God bless.

Hon. Terfa Atoza Ihindan
for the Atoza Ihindan Ngorkyaa Family.
