Deborah Samuel’s killer is not a Nigerian -Police
The Nigerian Police have revealed that the suspect involved in the murder of Deborah Samuel Yakubu, is not a Nigerian.
According to the Police, the suspect could not yet be found in the Sokoto metropolis where the inhumane crime was committed despite his face being captured in a viral video.
The suspect was captured boasting about his role in the lynching and burning of the innocent 200-level student.
“We started looking for him immediately we saw his video on social media, because he is fundamental to our investigation.
“We are now learning that he is not even a Nigerian but only came in illegally from Niger Republic to cause chaos in our country.”
According to the police source, Interpol might be deployed to help fish out and arrest the suspect.
The source said that, however, many police officers believe the suspect is a Nigerian and is still within the country’s borders.
“Some officers are saying he is a Nigerian and we need additional time to find him”.
“We have no facial recognition database, but we are following all available intelligence on the matter,” the source added.
