Chris Iyovwaye, the 2027 Delta State governorship candidate of the National Democratic Congress, has called for an impartial investigation into the death of Deputy Director Unity Ekpevbughe Adeda. Iyovwaye expressed deep concern over the circumstances surrounding Adeda's death, which reportedly occurred inside the State Commissioner for Secondary Education's office and later at Asaba Specialist Hospital.
The Delta State Police Command has initiated an investigation, arresting one suspect and searching for two others. Iyovwaye emphasized the need for a thorough, transparent investigation, citing the involvement of the Nigeria Labour Congress in demanding accountability. He urged the police to examine video footage, eyewitness accounts, and medical records, while cautioning against making premature conclusions.
The NDC candidate also urged the state government and relevant authorities to protect any civil servants involved in the investigation from intimidation or reprisals.
