In a shocking turn of events, Private Mohammed Adamu, bearing service number 21NA/80/0365, has been identified as the prime suspect in the brutal murder of a woman within the premises of the 82nd (Airborne and Amphibious) Division of the Nigerian Army, top sources revealed to SaharaReporters on Saturday....CONTINUE READING
The discovery of the lifeless body of the victim, clad in a hijab, was first reported by SaharaReporters, detailing how the daughter of an army lieutenant stumbled upon the grisly scene within the division’s officers’ quarters.
Investigations into the incident have unveiled a chilling narrative, implicating Private Mohammed Adamu as both the perpetrator and former lover of the deceased, identified as Miss Hauwa. Both individuals hailed from the same town in the Biu local government area of Borno state.
Sources close to the investigation disclosed that Private Mohammed Adamu facilitated Miss Hauwa’s journey to Enugu and subsequently committed the heinous crime upon her arrival. The soldier allegedly confessed to the gruesome act, which involved slitting her throat, stabbing her belly multiple times, and leaving her bound in the nearby bushes.
Disturbingly, it was revealed that Miss Hauwa was carrying Private Mohammed Adamu’s child at the time of her demise, adding another layer of tragedy to the horrific incident.
Further revelations from senior military officers indicate that the suspect was previously associated with Boko Haram, having purportedly repented and joined the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) before being enlisted into the Nigerian Army in 2021.
The Nigerian Army’s absorption of former CJTF members into its ranks, aimed at bolstering efforts against Boko Haram, has now come under scrutiny in light of this disturbing development.
