The Interfaith Youth Council of Nigeria (IYCN) has called for an independent and transparent investigation into the death of nurse Mary Habila, urging the public to avoid speculation while inquiries are ongoing.

Speaking at a press conference in Bauchi, the council cautioned against premature conclusions and inflammatory comments that could undermine the integrity of the investigation.

In a statement signed by its leader, Comrade Moses S. Moses, the IYCN called for a thorough and professional probe based solely on evidence and free from political interference or undue influence.

The council noted that Habila had worked as a healthcare professional in the household of the Minister of Works for about three years.
