TVC E. The deputy inspector general of police, RTD. Archbishop Kris Omeben a guest on TVC Breakfast Show has said, there is no need opening any murder case if it is of political use.
In the past, Chief Nwobodo had commended the President Muhammadu Buhari administration for taking the courage to re-open investigation on the assassination of Ige and Dikibo. According to him, it wass a right step in the right direction, especially when the families of the deceased and many Nigerians have expressed dissatisfaction with the outcome of previous investigations.
He said: “I am sure the President was prompted to revisit the high profile political killings based on the intelligent report he must have received on the matter. He must have been convinced beyond reasonable doubt that the matter was not properly investigated or that something went wrong with the investigation.
“The re-opening of the investigation has rekindled the hope that no matter how long it takes, the long hand of the law will definitely catch up with criminals. We should pray to God to crown the effort of Mr. President so that we can identify those behind the gruesome murder of Ige and Dikibo.”
Keyamo described the move as a welcome development. It is long overdue. We must unravel the identity of those behind the murder of Ige and Dikibo, saying that nobody should be allowed to get away with crime. He urged the new leadership of the police to fish out the killers.
On other unresolved assassination cases, Keyamo wanted the files to be re-opened because, according to him, “every live is important; we should not restrict the new effort to Ige and Dikibo”.
Chief Akintola said the President should be commended for his boldness and political will in getting to the root of political assassinations in the country.
