Accident or assassination?

The nature of two holes on the late Professor Festus Iyayi’s body gives life to suspicions by his colleagues that he may have been shot.

Along with grief, anger will be the dominant emotion when Professor Festus Iyayi is buried this week in his hometown, Ugbegun in Edo State. The two feelings have mixed, predictably with unsavoury outcomes, since the former president of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, died on 12 November in an auto accident on the Lokoja-Abuja Expressway.

Iyayi was travelling to Kano in the company of three other ASUU members for a meeting on the ongoing strike by members of the union when a police escort van in the convoy of the Governor Idris Wada of Kogi State rammed into the bus the university teachers were travelling. Iyayi died instantly, while three his colleagues were seriously injured.

Wada, who was severely injured in an accident involving his convoy last year, was widely criticised by ASUU and the wider public for his failure to learn from his own experience and for allegedly failing to stop to assist the victims.

The escort vehicle was said to have veered off from its lane to hit the bus bearing the ASUU members, a claim the Kogi State government denied.

The Nigeria Medical Association, NMA, called for an official inquiry into Iyayi’s death and urged the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, to curb the recklessness of official convoys.

The FRSC also got a slice of the criticisms, following an accusation that it was shielding the driver of the vehicle that smashed into the bus conveying Iyayi and his colleagues.
One week after, ASUU dismissed the view that Iyayi’s death was accidental and forcefully contested the official claim that his heart was pierced by a strange object at the accident scene. The association pointedly blamed the death on the government and “its agents”. In a statement issued by the University of Benin chapter of the union, ASUU said Iyayi did not die in an accident, but was “wilfully” murdered. The union said it will demand concrete answers from the government for the alleged murder. It demanded that an autopsy be performed on Iyayi’s corpse and warned government officials to stay away from the burial.

“His burial should not be an avenue for government officials to score cheap political points, as we will resist any state involvement in the burial,” the union raved. Civil society groups in Edo State also demanded an inquiry into Iyayi’s death.

Was Iyayi murdered? ASUU believes it has what constitutes prima facie evidence to support its suspicion. Members of the union point to two holes, one in the chest and another in the back, as offering a less than complicated indication that Iyayi was shot. Photographs of Iyayi’s corpse obtained by this magazine, show holes that look like entry and exit bullet holes.

Tinyemeka: Laaaffsss. One of the most funniest vids I've ever seen on Youtube.

I almost fell for the Miley look-alike.

Ya bro... but to know it hasn't made fb so others could laugh it off is frustrating .

MODIFIED:
Did I just make fp again? twice in one week! Jesus u r onethefull! may ur name b highly exalted! God bless my mum,Airtel,my English teacher Mrs S.U expo, my English lecturer Prof.(forgotten his name due to d prolonged strike ) and every body who stood by me,even when I was a nobody on Nairaland. May God also show ya'l this divine favour data he has shown me! the feeling is electric fellas!

Stegomiah: And does it make the club a less better team? You did not answer that part. Go down history lane, and mention a club without its own run of trophyless spell. And thats the more reason y i said you know notin bout football. The Op has been supporting the club when it was good; trophy wise and now that it does not look so good. Its all about passion, thats my point.

leave those kinda people my brother, they only watch the finals. I am not an arsenal fan but won't deny the fact that arsenal is a joy to watch

ogugua88: Nope. Switch the roles. Tell her to quit a typical female hobby, like spending 10 hours getting hair braided, talking with friends, shopping, or going out for meals, and see the reaction. More often than not, a woman would argue and ask why. I think people with successful marriages are those who don't smother one another with their presences. I see no reason why a married man should give up football simply because he's married. As if there are no husbands and fathers who tune in to the EPL twice a week.

your points are concrete no doubt and I wasn't trying to disprove it or something. All I said n still saying is that u should find a way to get it across without an element of insult. We are talking about someone who is unlikely to read ur post or reply u

Hackerjay: Village? Wen last av i been dia,let alone of knowin the taboo

bow ur head in shit-pool bro

#stewpid posts making fb. my village really frowns at that!

ogugua88: It was a question, and a fair one at that. I'm sure she knew he was an Arsenal fan before they married. Of all things to moan about too. Wonders shall never end.

I even thought you were joking about the whole stuff.

ogugua88: You know it's true. Some women make unnecessary demands. Why should he stop watching Arsenal? Because he's away for 2 hours? If he tells her to stop spending hours at the salon, she go gree?

I'd rather put up with him being gone and watching Arsenal than him being home and miserable at me because I banned one of his long-time hobbies.

then u should have tried to make ur point without insulting d woman

ogugua88: SHE DEY CRAZE?!?!

I'm sorry, but I do find that ridiculous odd. There's nothing wrong with having a hobby as such. I'm an avid football fan myself. The answer I'd have for her, she may not like. Something like smoking, drinking, staying out late, etc., are habits I wouldn't like in a partner, but watching football? Either she gets on board or leave me be. Sorry.

Na wa for woman wahala. *runs away*

take ur insolence elsewhere

aside from your kids, sir I don't see anything as valuable and irreplaceable as a wife. You can't be leaving the poor woman alone in the house all in the name of going to watch "arsenal". Next time, take her with you,if she doesn't like the viewing center ,endeavour to buy a satellite decoder. CTL is just 18k or there about and shows all the matches u can ever or might never think of with just a token of N3100 a month as subscription

I am tired of Nigeria's education system. So after passing JAMB what? ASUU right?

wait

saw this video on YouTube, it's epic hilarious. watch and thank me later.

UPDATE ON MAIDUGURI DEADLY
BOKO HARAM ATTACKS
Unconfirmed report has it that
over 20 security operatives were
killed while two helicopters at the
79 Composite Group, NAF Base
headquarters were burnt down
completely including some Staff
Quarters. This is even as one of
the armoured tankers belonging to
the 7 Division was seized from the
military by the attackers, but was
later recovered when it was
abundant after it developed
technical fault in the process of
using it by the insurgents.
Also, 4 innocent civilians/
residents in Kofa outskirts of
Gomari Airport ward were shot
dead by the insurgents on their
way to escape through Kofa
village while 2 Michika youths
operating a chemists/patent
medicine store [name withheld]
were slaughtered by the terrorists.
Speaking to our Correspondent, a
top government official who
resides with his family at the 707
Housing Estate but did not want
his name mentioned in print said,
“a police outpost which now
turned to be a military check point
at the entrance of the Main Gate
was also attacked and razed
down.
He said, few days ago, there were
three suspected foreigners
arrested and were detained in the
police outpost which is just 50
meters away to the main gate of
the estate, and when the terrorists
gained entrance, they opened fire
on the detained foreigners
thinking they were security men, a
situation which led to the death of
two of them, while the other
foreigner sustained gunshot injury
on his head.
Also burnt down by the terrorists
according to sources are petrol
filling station along the
Maiduguri- Jimtilo- Damaturu
Federal highway, as well as
several vehicles waiting for
service at different mechanical
workshops along the main road.
3 bungalow flats opposite the NAF
Base were also not left out in the
clash as they were burnt down
completely, the Spokesman of the
7 Division, Colonel Mohammed
Dole confirmed the multiple
attacks and killings by the
terrorists suspected to be Boko
Haram sects.
In a press statement he issued to
newsmen, Dole said, ” In the early
hours of Monday 2 December
2013, Boko Haram terrorists
attempted to gain access to
Military locations in Maiduguri
Metropolis. However, troops of the
7 Division, Nigerian Army have
successfully repelled the
insurgents and afflicted serious
casualties on them.
” The situation around Jimtilo and
Maiduguri International Airport
General Areas are now calm and
under control. Our troops
supported by Nigerian Air force
aircrafts are presently pursuing
the terrorists towards the
Maiduguri- Beneshiekh- Damaturu
road. Members of the general
public are requested to remain
calm and comply with the 24
hours curfew imposed by the
Borno State Government. The
curfew will be reviewed
periodically as the situation
improves”. The full text of the
statement revealed.
Although, Colonel Dole who briefly
spoke to Journalists at the
Government House did not give
further details on the number of
casualties from the side of the
military or the terrorists, but
insisted that during the attacks,
the military troops were able to
inflict serious casualties on the
terrorists.
He said, ” gentlemen, in will still
come back and furnish you with
further details, as at now, we are
busy, but I will get back to you,
please exercise patience”. Dole
said after issuing his statement.
