Man stabbed to death over ‘banku’ in Gushegu
A 25-year-old tipper truck driver, Iddrisu Yakubu
has been stabbed to death at Nayilifong in the
Gushegu Township of the Northern Region, Friday
February 24, 2017.

The suspect, Ziblila Ibrahim alias Bulubulu is in
the grips of the Gushegu district police command.

The deceased’s uncle, in a Citi News interview,
narrated that the duo had a misunderstanding at a
banku joint.

According to Abdul Salam Yakubu, the suspect
accused the deceased of bypassing him to be served
by the banku seller.

“Unexpectedly, the suspect later accosted my
nephew on his way home and stabbed him to death at
10 pm last night,” he recounted.

Abdul Salam Yakubu said the body of the deceased
has been deposited at the Gushegu district
hospital morgue.

The family has admonished the police to
immediately prosecute the suspect or expect a
reprisal attack.

The Police’s rapid response to the crime scene
foiled an attempt by some angry community members
to set ablaze the suspect’s family house.
