The State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), SP Ahmed Mohammed Wakil, who confirmed the incident informed that a good Samaritan reported the incident to the police.

Wakil said; “Police received a distress call from a good Samaritan that an unknown person had used a stone to break the skull of the Almajiri pupil.

“The two Qur’anic school pupils, Muhammad Yunusa -11 years and Aminu Yusuf -12 years old were deceived by unknown persons who used that stone to break the skull of Yunusa and ran to unknown destination.”

The PPRO informed that upon the receipt of the distress call, police personnel immediately mobilized to the scene of the crime, where they met Yunus lying in the pool of his blood.

“They (police) took him to the Bauchi Specialist Hospital, Bauchi, where a medical doctor certified him dead,” he said.

Wakil explained that the state Commissioner of Police, Sylvester Abiodun Alabi, had directed the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of “A” Division to act on the case with immediate effect.

He added that CP Alabi further directed that no stone must be left unturned in arresting the perpetrators of the act in order to bring them to book.

The PPRO then advised parents and guardians to always monitor the movement of their children and wards, adding that, “they should not allow them to answer calls from strangers in the name of giving them something.”
