WHO IS AFTER HON. DICKSON TARKIGHIR?

Spread the love

There was a disturbing
post on facebook recently about Hon. Dickson Tarkighir. Well am glad the
parties involved have responded to this. Incase you didn’t see it, one guy
posted that a certain politician seeking election into the Federal House of Reps
is been accused of stealing his step mother’s corpse for rituals. Anyway here
is the post.
BREAKING
NEWS!!!!Missing Corpse at Bishop Murray Medical Centre Mortuary Makurdi.The
corpse of the step mother to the House of Representative hopeful Makurdi/Guma
Federal Constituency come 2015h, Hon.Dickson Tarkighir has been reported
missing at the mortuary. Could this be that HON.DICKSON TARKIGHIR who deposited
the corpse by himself does not know the where about of it or he has used it for
rituals to achieve his political ambitions. The Utyondu people are
demonstrating right now, calling HON.DICKSON TARKIGHIR to return the corpse of
their Mother.
And this is the
press release to the post and rumours been peddled around.
Considering a post
last night of the missing of the corpse of one Mrs. Anava Tarkighir, a
step-mother to Makurdi/Guma House of Reps-2015 hopeful, Hon. Dickson Tarkighir,
the following facts avail; that-
1. The deceased,
Mrs. Anava Tarkighir (nee Tyongiga), native of Mbaikyor in Makurdi LGA, had
been married to Hon. Dickson Tarkighir’s father, and the marriage produced four
children (two males and two females), but following the death of her husband,
Pa Tarkighir in 2000, the woman eventually left back to her native place where
she has been in the last five years;
2. The deceased
died on 20th August, 2014 at the Bishop Murray Medical Centre, Makurdi
following a bout of sickness, and at the time of her death she was in the care
of her brother, one Mr. Akor Tyongiga, who had brought her to the hospital;
3. Following her
death, Hon. Dickson Tarkighir was informed and he duly came to the Bishop
Murray Medical Centre and, in line with Tiv customs, got involved in the
arrangements to give the deceased a befitting burial at the Tarkighirs
ancestral home at Uvii, Guma LGA, Benue State;
4. Hon. Dickson
Tarkighir, together with Mr. Akor Tyongiga, had taken the deceased’s remains to
Federal Medical Centre, Makurdi, to deposit at the mortuary there, whereupon a
death certificate was demanded, which could not be obtained from the Bishop
Murray Medical Centre, necessitating the remains to be returned and deposited
at the mortuary there, and a receipt was duly issued in the name of Mr. Akor
Tyongiga on 20th August, 2014;
5. However, on
Thursday, 4th September, 2014, Mr. Akor Tyongiga, in the company of younger
siblings of Hon. Dickson Tarkighir went to the Bishop Murray Medical Centre
mortuary to retrieve the remains of Mrs Anava Takighir for burial, but they
discovered that the remains were missing;
6. The search for
the missing remains went as far as Ushongo LGA to ascertain if the remains of a
woman taken from that same mortuary the previous day were those being searched
for, yet to no avail, and the situation was compounded by the absence of
detailed records of remains of dead persons deposited at the mortuary;

7. The situation
brought in the intervention of the Nigerian Police Force which arrested all the
morticians and mortuary attendants at the Bishop Murray Medical Centre
mortuary, who have since been in police custody and are being interrogated in
investigations to ascertain the whereabouts of the missing remains of Mrs.
Anava Tarkighir;
8. It is therefore,
wicked and mischievous to try to play dirty politics with a matter like this by
insinuating that Hon. Dickson Tatkighir could have stolen the remains of his
step-mother, Mrs. Anava Tarkighir for ritual purposes;
9. Such wicked
rumours only highlight the desperation and moral bankruptcy of Hon. Dickson
Tarkighir’s opponents, who are known to be unstable and disruptive characters,
whose trade-in-stock largely consists in gutter-level politics of sponsorship
of thuggery and promotion of strife and disquiet in the community;
10. Hon. Dickson
Tarkighir is known to be an honourable and upright man with an unblemished
record as a successful businessman, who is currently a frontline contender for
the Makurdi/Guma House of Reps seat election in 2015, and his involvement with
the burial arrangements of Mrs. Anava Tarkighir was in line with Tiv customs
which require him to give the deceased a befitting burial in his father’s
house.
The above facts
avail to me from investigations and from interview of Hon. Dickson Tarkighir.
