Please, forget that the Nigeria police was shameless enough to say that the only investigation it conducted on the matter was the discussion with members of the Sarumi entourage. Nothing was said about answers from eye-witnesses. The real point here is whether the late Mrs. Umoren was still alive and pleading for help when the Sarumi train sent off its wounded to the hospital and drove off. That really is the issue. That dead woman was part of the demos whose crazy Sarumi is a high official of.
Social equality presupposes the equality of all persons.
Thus, those members of Sarumi's entourage who were evacuated from the accident scene to hospitals should have been given equal treatment with then injured Mrs. Naomi Umoren. For weeks now, Sarumi has attempted to make Nigerians believe that he had done nothing wrong. For weeks, Abuja has behaved as though nothing went wrong. It just might be that soon the electorate will forget when next Sarumi presents himself for an elective office or the case might dog him like the Chippaquidick scandal which has ensured that the only surviving one of the original Kennedy brothers, will never be President of the United States. This Sarumi incident has become a serious test for the health of the Nigerian democracy.
