Anita Baaki, the young lady who was at the home of David Umahi with Mary Habila before she did there has narrated the events leading to Habilas dath. Sahara Reporters reported days earlier that 26-year-old Mary Habila, from Kaduna, was found de@d and n@ked under unusual circumstances in the home of Minister of Works, David Umahi, in Ebonyi State. The reports revealed that she was last seen alive on June 26 before her body was discovered on June 27, but it was only made public after the publication published the news. Nigerians began asking questions about why two young women were imported from different states to the home of Umahi in Ebonyi State and Umahi’s team claimed in a statement that Mary Habila and the Anita Baaki are physiotherapists sent to his house. Speaking now for the first time, Anita Baaki, said to be a physiotherapist and colleague of Mary Habila, shared her account of what happened to Habila, said to be a nurse attached to the David Umahi Federal University of Medical Sciences and on secondment to the Federal Ministry of Works. Baaki’s narration was contained in a sworn affidavit filed before the Ebonyi State High Court on Wednesday. According to Baaki, a Benue citizen, she travelled with Habila and other ministry officials from Abuja to Ebonyi State on June 24, 2026, for an official assignment under the Minister of Works, David Umahi. Baaki disclosed that they were accommodated in separate but adjoining rooms in a staff chalet within the ministers country home in Uburu, Ohaozara Local Government Area of the state. She maintained that the chalet was designated for ministry staff and associates and was not the ministers personal residence, stressing that she last saw Habila alive on the evening of June 26 after she returned from having her hair done. According to her, Habila stopped by her room to show off her new hairstyle before they chatted and joked for a while. Habila told me she was tired and wanted to take a shower before sleeping. That was the last time I saw her alive, Baaki stated in the affidavit. The physiotherapist said she became terrified the following morning when Habila did not come out of her room as expected, emphasising that repeated calls to Habilas phone went unanswered, prompting her to knock on the door. She revealed that when there was no response and the room remained locked from the inside, she alerted a domestic staff member to search the premises, noting that after Habila could not be found elsewhere, other staff members were informed and the room was forced open. The Benue-born physiotherapist reiterated that Habila was found lying unconscious on the floor near the entrance of the room, adding that she was immediately taken to the David Umahi Federal University Teaching Hospital, where doctors confirmed that she was de@d on arrival. Baaki claimed that her statement was made voluntarily and without coercion to assist investigators in determining the circumstances surrounding Habilas dath. Police investigations are ongoing.
