Osaghee died under questionable circumstances on July 29, 2024.
His family, through the Akin Fadeyi Foundation (AFF), a nonprofit civil society organisation, had petitioned the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID), to probe the circumstances surrounding his death.
According to the petition, Osaghae was healthy and had no health issues before his death.
He made a video call to his wife at 1:30 a.m. and later ran back to work after being asked to bring “something” by his boss.
The family alleged that Osaghae’s body was found with strange marks and injuries, suggesting he was tortured before his death.
The spokesperson of the command, SP Joel Yamu, said the case has been transferred to the State CID for further investigation.
The PPRO assured that the outcome will be made known once the investigation is concluded.
The police also promised a thorough investigation to unravel the circumstances surrounding Osaghae’s death and bring the perpetrators to justice.
