Man Dies After Confrontation With Miscreants Over Girlfriend
A 25-year-old man, Usman Mohammed, has died following a violent confrontation with a group of young men over his girlfriend in the Barkin Sale area of Minna, Niger State.
According to reports, the incident occurred while Usman was visiting his girlfriend, Halima Usman, at her residence in the Deeper Life Upper Base community. The couple were seated outside when they were approached by three men identified as Barafi, Ayya, and another yet-to-be-named individual.
The men reportedly tried to lure Halima with an offer of ₦5,000, which she rejected. Their persistence led to harassment and provocation, escalating tensions with Usman.
A heated altercation ensued, during which one of the men allegedly stabbed Usman in the back with a dagger. He was rushed to the General Hospital in Minna for emergency care but later died from his injuries, according to medical officials.
Police from the Niger State Command visited the crime scene, collected evidence, and transported the body to the hospital morgue for autopsy.
One suspect, identified as Ahmed Mohammed, has been arrested in connection with the killing. Authorities say a manhunt has been launched to apprehend the remaining two suspects.
Confirming the incident, the command’s spokesperson, DSP Wasiu Abiodun, said investigations are ongoing and that all responsible parties will be brought to justice.
