He said;
“He was killed on Friday, October 25, yet they’re trying to frame his death as a pool drowning during a party. This young man was a skilled swimmer, so this explanation doesn’t add up.
“He traveled to Port Harcourt to contest in the Nigeria Institute of Civil Engineering (NICE-SA) elections, which were scheduled for Saturday, October 26. But he died the day before. We just want to know the truth because everyone we’ve asked is giving us conflicting stories.
“Now, one of the NICE-SA leaders, who was responsible for depositing his body at the mortuary, left Port Harcourt with all the members who attended the election. They’ve fled, and we haven’t been able to retrieve his body since, as he’s the only one authorized to sign it out.
Another Facebook user, who reacted in a video said the association sent a condolences message to Dashe’s family, school etc less than 20 minutes after his demise.
“The question we are asking is which hospital declared him dead. If he had attended a pool party, where was it held, and who were the attendees? A person can’t die without any explanation. There must be a proper investigation,” he added
