The letter partly reads: “I am writing to bring to your attention a deeply distressing incident that has shaken our community and demands immediate attention.
“It pertains to the gruesome murder of Aisha, a physically challenged woman and a mother of three who tragically lost her life on the 7th of June, 2023 in her shop located in Obehira, Okene LGA, Kogi state.
“According to eyewitness accounts, Aisha was brutally attacked by her boyfriend in her shop.
“The assailant forcibly dragged her from the inner chamber and mercilessly stabbed her multiple times until she succumbed to her injuries.

“In light of these circumstances, I implore your esteem department and other relevant security agencies to launch a thorough investigation into Aisha’s murder.
“I urge you to leave no stone unturned in identifying and apprehending the suspect responsible for this heinous crime.
“Additionally, I kindly request that necessary measures be taken to ensure the safety and well-being of Aisha’s grieving family and witnesses involved in the case.”
