Sowore Demands Inquest into Mary Habila's Death

Omoyele Sowore, a member of the Presidential Action Alliance, has called for a coroner's inquest into the death of Mary Habila before her burial. He insists that no burial should take place until a complete investigation, including necessary forensic examinations, is conducted.

Sowore's statement, posted on his official page on July 15, 2026, highlights concerns about the circumstances surrounding Habila's death, which he claims suggest unnatural causes, including allegations of blood flow from her mouth. He urges relevant authorities to carry out procedures required by law, including an autopsy.

Sowore referenced previous unexplained deaths involving individuals connected to the ministry of David Umahi, emphasizing that these incidents deserve public scrutiny. He insists that the investigation into Habila's death must be thorough and transparent before any burial can occur.
