By Ibrahim Sadiq – 19th February, 2020
The Assistant Director of Administration at the Presidential Villa, Mrs. Letitia Dagan, gruesomely murdered in her Abuja residence on Monday night, 17th day of February, 2020. has been speculated to be linked to the security Memo leaked by the office of NSA boss, Mongonu against President Buhari’s Chief of staff, Kyari.
According to a report by Opera News and other online news platforms, it is apparent the death of this woman is evoking a lot of questions to the federal government that Nigerians are eagerly waiting for the answers, as it is believed that only those that are privy to the leaked memo within Aso Rock that must have carried out this act.
But RegentAfrica Times understands that this is just speculations until proven.
Aged 47 from plateau state, a colleague of the victim said she was tied and set ablaze on her mattress, according to a report by Punch.
The presidency confirmed her death via a statement on Tuesday.
Attah Esa, a deputy director of information at the state house, said the deceased was killed around 11pm on Monday.
The statement quoted Jalal Arabi, state house permanent secretary, as describing Dagan’s death as “a painful loss, not only to her immediate family, but also the entire State House.”
“She was a dedicated, hard-working officer, and we all feel pained by her dastardly and untimely death,” Arabi reportedly told her family during a condolence visit.
“We all share in your grief and pains, but be consoled by the fact that she lived a good life and contributed her best to the services of her nation.”
The permanent secretary also expressed confidence that the police will fish out Dagan’s killers and that “the law will take its course.”
Meanwhile, she was said to be a participant in an ongoing training for civil servants holding at the Manhattan Event Centre, Uke, Nasarawa State.
The last photo taken by Laetitia Dagan, before she was killed in her apartment in Galadimawa, Abuja, shortly after she returned from work on Monday has been released.
It was gathered that the 47-year-old Plateau State indigene was said to have left her office at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, around 8pm while the incident happened around 11pm.
“The assailants were so cruel. They tied her and set her with her mattress on fire.
“She was just promoted to the position of assistant director last year. She was always full of smile,” one of her colleagues said according to Punch.
