Speaking with News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday, the command’s spokesperson, DSP Catherine Anene said the deceased who lectured at the Mechanical Engineering Department of the university was murdered on Saturday night.

According the police spokesperson, the lecturer’s body was found around 11p.m within the Tarka Foundation premises, Makurdi.
