A student of the University of Jos
has been killed by a man described as her boyfriend for allegedly turning down
his invitation for a date last Sunday- Valentine day.
Miss Nanchin Zakariah of the Psychology
department of the university was allegedly strangled to death by Badung David
Dele on Monday, the day after Valentine at her Angwa Rukuba apartment.
According to Bello Lukeman Unity of
Jos FM 93.3 in a Facebook report, the two had been in an intimate
relationship for quite some time until a misunderstanding set in shortly
before the last Valentine day.
Badung was said to have reached out to
Nanchin apparently to settle their differences and invited her out for
Valentine.
An unimpressed Nanchin reportedly
smelled a cat and declined the invitation outright.
She felt that there was no basis for
any dating between, since they had already parted ways.
The following morning, the suspect
stormed Nanchin’s apartment demanding an explanation why she failed to
make the outing.
He reportedly grabbed his victim by
the neck and strangled her to death.
The Plateau State Police Command confirmed
the incident and the arrest of the suspect.
The Police Public Relations Officer
DSP Abu Emmanuel said Badung was arrested on the same day “and after some
interrogation, he confessed to have committed the crime.”
The police, according to him, “are making
necessary arrangements to arraign him in court soon. The Police Commissioner is
using this opportunity to caution ladies to be careful who they date. Some of
these boys are criminals and you might ignorantly fall into their hands like
this girl”
The body of the deceased has
been transferred from Bingham University Teaching Hospital to the Jos
University Teaching Hospital JUTH for autopsy.
