LATEST: Wife, son differ on NECO registrar’s death
Two members have maintained their contradictory positions in the cause of death of NECO registrar, Prof. Godswill Obiora, in Minna, Niger, on Tuesday.
The wife, Elizabeth Obioma who broke the news insisted her husband was assassinated after his return from Abuja on Monday.
“The assassins came in and killed him and left without taking anything,” she told Peoples Gazette.
But Godswill Jr. stood his ground on his earlier statement attributing the death to a heart attack.
“Dear Sir, this is to formally inform you that my father Prof. Godswill Obioma, the Registrar/Chief Executive of NECO passed to eternal glory yesterday 31/5/2021 after a brief illness,” he said in a press statement.
“We request that you kindly notify the Board, Management and the entire staff of the Council of this development. We shall keep you duly informed.
“Prince Godswill Obioma the 2nd, for the family.”
The director Human Resources of the exam body, Mustapha K. Abdul, said the late NECO boss slumped in his bedroom in Minna and was rushed to the National Hospital. Abuja where he eventually died.
