Sequel to the petition sent to the Inspector General of
Police, Mr. Solomon Arase by Concerned Women Voices on November 3rd
2015, the IGP has ordered a detailed investigation into the suspicious
death of the young LUTH Consultant and mother of two. As you can
recollect Dr Hestianna Idiodi - Thomas, a Consultant Paediatrician was
rushed to the hospital by her husband on Tuesday October 13th with fatal
injuries sustained in her home.
The IGP has assigned the case to the Homicide Dept of Zone 2, Onikan which is in charge of Lagos and Ogun States.
Concerned Women Voices hereby expresses it's appreciation
to the IGP for approving the petition and making efforts to ensure that
the questions being asked by the coalition are answered. Every human
life is sacred.
This is particularly commendable as it is coming a day
after the IGP pledged his commitment to enforcing the just enacted
Violence Against Persons Prohibition Law which was signed in to law by
President Jonathan just before he left office. This law amongst other
things prohibits all forms of violence against women and girls.
Signed
Barr Ben Odeh On Behalf of Concerned Women Voices
