Two Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) have been arrested by the police over the alleged killing of 72-year-old Abba Mustapha over alleged witchcraft, in Ngala LGA of Borno State.
The spokesman of the police, ASP Kenneth Daso Nahun, confirmed that the two people suspected to be involved have been arrested, and the investigation is ongoing.
Our men rescued him and conveyed him to the hospital, where he was confirmed dead,” he said.
He said that the body of the deceased has been released to his family for burial, while an investigation has been launched to ensure justice.
He urged the community to report incidents to the police instead of resorting to violence.
