Super TV CEO: Usifo Ataga Family Breaks Silence , Issues Demands To Public
The family of Michael Usifo Ataga, the late Super TV Chief Executive Officer, has implored Nigerians with helpful information about their son’s murder to contact the police.
According to NEWS DIRECT, the family made the appeal in a press conference given by Dr. Isi Ataga.
The family, who indicated that the information provided by the police thus far did not add up, has their own concerns.
They also called for restraint from the press and social media commentators.
The statement read: “Here are the facts. A little over a week ago, unknown persons savagely killed our beloved son, Usifo Ataga. With no regard for him, or his family, who love him, they viciously ended his life.
“His children will grow up to read unkind, thoughtless words from thousands of people who have joined the lynching party in the press and the blogosphere. Our aging parents must now struggle to pick up the pieces amid a cacophony of misinformation propagated by strangers.
“A suspect has been arrested and paraded before the press. We, the Ataga Family, are grateful to the Nigerian Police for pursuing this investigation. However, like you, we have many unanswered questions. Some things don’t add up.
“If you have any information, don’t hide behind online posts. Instead, come forward and share it with the Police.
“Here’s what we do know. The more you add to the false information in the press and on social media, the harder it is for the Nigerian Police to do their work and fully solve this case. The harder it is for a grieving family to recover from the loss of their beloved son.”
