An 18-year-old suspect, Fatiyah Abdulhakeem, who was accused of killing a retired Permanent Secretary in Niger State, Adamu Jagaba, has died in police custody.

Police sources confirmed Abdulhakeem’s death on Thursday, although the exact cause remains unclear. The suspect, recently paraded by Niger State Commissioner of Police, Shawulu Ebenezer Danmama, admitted during his arrest to being hired by workers of the deceased to carry out the murder at Jagaba’s block industry near the PDP Secretariat in Minna.

The Niger State Police Spokesperson, SP Wasiu Abiodun, said Abdulhakeem complained of severe stomach pain and coughing on December 19. He was taken to the General Hospital, Minna, for treatment but died while receiving medical attention. His body has been deposited at the hospital morgue, pending a postmortem examination to determine the cause of death. Investigations are ongoing.
