He said the suspect was now under investigation by the State Criminal Investigations Department for prosecution. The neighbours, who handed the suspect over to the police, described him as a terror to the community.

  1. This article is really terrible! I hope that such incidents as this will not happen anymore in our country and in the whole world at all. To be honest, I usually read articles and news about Nigeria on another website. And some minutes ago I found here https://www.naij.com/1042786-4-american-presidents-who-won-the-popular-vote-but-lost-the-election-photos.html very interesting article. Please tell me what do you think aboit it.
