David Umahi, Minister of Works, has made fresh revelations about Mary Habila, the nurse who died at the residence.

Habila, an employee of the David Umahi Federal University Teaching Hospital in Ebonyi, died at the residence of the Minister in Uburu, Ebonyi State, on June 27.

Her death has sparked a nationwide outrage, with many calling for an independent probe.

Speaking at a press briefing on Thursday, Umahi said the deceased was like a daughter to him.

Umahi said Habila had worked closely with him for about three years and was like a daughter to him and his family.

The Minister clarified that Habila was a nurse employed by the David Umahi Federal University of Health Sciences, Ebonyi State, and not a physiotherapist.
