Former chairman of National Human Rights Commission , Prof. Chidi Odinkalu, has called for the review of the video footage of a Nigerian woman said to have died of strangulation in a hotel in South Africa.
She was later found dead in her room at Emperor’s Palace Casino, Hotel and Convention Centre, Johannesburg. Her death has sparked outrage on social media after a report dated June 27, 2019, and signed by the Director-General of the Department of Health, Republic of South Africa, stated that she died of “unnatural causes consistent with strangulation”.
Friends and family members said on a website set up in her memory that she was murdered and even accused the South African government and the hotel management of not doing enough to bring her alleged killers to justice. Tweeting on Saturday, Odinkalu renewed his call for review of the video footage of the victim’s hotel room.
