President Bola Tinubu has ordered an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Somtochukwu Christelle Maduagwu, a news anchor and producer with Arise Television.
Maduagwu died on Monday during an armed robbery at her residence in Abuja. Reports indicate that armed men stormed her apartment complex, prompting her to jump from her apartment in an attempt to escape. She sustained severe injuries in the process and was rushed to Maitama District Hospital, where she later died.
Her death has been linked to alleged negligence on the part of hospital staff.
In a directive issued on Tuesday, President Tinubu called for a thorough probe into the incident, with particular focus on the roles played by medical personnel and security agencies.
