The latest message comes barely a day after SOKAPU publicly accused the minister of threatening its president over the legal action seeking an independent investigation into Habila's controversial death.
Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, has allegedly issued a fresh warning to the National President of the Southern Kaduna Peoples United Associations (SOKAPU), Engr. Samuel Tabara Kato, amid the escalating controversy surrounding the death of 26-year-old Mary Habila and the N20 billion lawsuit filed against him.
In a WhatsApp message seen by SaharaReporters, a phone number said to belong to Umahi warned Kato not to fear the legal consequences of the lawsuit, while also referencing the SOKAPU president's recent media engagements, including an interview with CNN.
"Don't be afraid of the market u purchased. U will hear from legal authorities soonest. Continue another funny conference with CNN,” the message read.
“U want 20bn naira over the unfortunate death of someone that u know nothing about. U will get 20bn different suits for a lesson of ur funny life."
