IBBU Lapai Student Stabbed to Death During Robbery Near Campus
The Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida University (IBBU), Lapai, was thrown into mourning after an undergraduate was stabbed to death during a robbery near the campus in Niger State.
The incident happened in the early hours of Monday when armed men stormed a student lodge in the Ndakatabu area, just outside the school gate. The victim, identified by fellow students as Jafar, a 200-level Education student, was attacked and stabbed in the neck. He was rushed to the General Hospital in Lapai but sadly did not survive.
News of his death spread quickly across the university community, leading to protests by students who blocked the busy Agaie–Lapai highway. They demanded justice for their colleague and called for stronger security both within and around the school environment.
“We can’t keep living in fear every night,” one angry student said. “The government and school authorities must act before more lives are lost.”
The Niger State Police Command confirmed the incident, with Commissioner of Police Adamu Elleman ordering a full investigation and a manhunt for the attackers. Police spokesman Wasiu Abiodun said tactical teams had been deployed and assured students that those behind the crime would be caught.
A viral clip has made its way online showing a police officer in Delta State shooting a suspect who had already been restrained.
It can be noted that the suspect was pleading, claiming he had been framed and deceived, and said he would lead them to the right place.
However, while he was pleading, the police officer shot him. The officer later stated that the suspect was armed with a gun.
It was later revealed that the police officer has been arrested, as it is against the law to shoot a restrained suspect.
It was reported by the Kogi State Government that 24 children were abducted from an orphanage home. It was shared that this happened on the 26th of April, Sunday, and gunmen were seen in the area that day.
The information was shared by the Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, who shared this sad news and described it as unfortunate.
“We condemn in strong terms the abduction of innocent children from an orphanage, the government is working closely with security operatives to ensure their safe return,”
Ghanaian media personality Afia Schwarzenegger speaks on the xenophobia issues occurring around Africans in South Africa.
She stated that Ghana is not the same as Nigeria and shared that if such issues happen to Ghanaians in South Africa, they will speak up and not keep quiet. She added that they will react.
“Ghana is not like Nigeria and we won’t hesitate to return the stupid favour.”
