THIRTY-seven years after the death of the founder of Newswatch, a public affairs analyst and public relations consultant, Mr. Deyemi Saka, yesterday, refuted claims that the veteran journalist, late Dele Giwa, died from a letter bomb.
Saka, who spoke on a breakfast show, a Television Continental, TVC, programme, said no investigation or forensic analysis was carried out to determine the cause of Giwa’s death.
Saka insisted that there is a need for Nigerians to call the eye witness for a clear account of all that transpired before Giwa passed on. “Victims or survivors of parcel bombs always have injuries on their faces or limbs. The death of Giwa wasn’t consistent with this. The eyewitness account explained how he tore it open. His face was spared.
“The only blame on Gen. Ibrahim Babangida was not fishing out his killers. I also blame successive governments for this. Nigerians should please start asking questions, probably need to call the eyewitness to please sit back and tell Nigerians maybe he missed a thing or two.
