Minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi, has spoken publicly for the first time on the death of Miss Mary Habila, describing her as “like a daughter” to him.
Habila, a nurse with the David Umahi Federal University of Medical Sciences, Uburu, died on June 27, 2026, at a guest house within the minister’s residence in Umunaga, Uburu, Ebonyi State.
Addressing journalists on Thursday, Umahi clarified that Habila was a nurse and not a physiotherapist as previously reported in some quarters.
