By: Michael Mike

In light of the recent reports alleging that retired Comptroller General of the Nigerian Immigration Service, David Shikfu Parradang, was kidnapped and subsequently killed, we wish to clarify the facts surrounding this incident to ensure accurate information is disseminated to the public.

On March 3, 2025, at approximately 12:00 PM, Mr. Parradang arrived at Joy House Hotel, Area 3 Junction, driving a black Mercedes Benz. He checked into the hotel, paying a sum of Twenty two thousand naira (N22,000) for one night’s stay. Shortly thereafter, he directed the hotel room attendant to escort a female guest who had come to visit to his room. This lady left the hotel premises around 04:00PM of the same day.

Mr. Parradang did not exit his room after the lady left. Around 04:00 AM of 04 March 2025, a friend who is a military officer, concerned for his wellbeing, traced him to the hotel. Upon arrival, the hotel receptionist and the officer proceeded to his room, where Mr. Parradang was found deceased, seated in a chair.

The Durumi Police Station was notified and officers promptly arrived at the scene, secured the area, took photographs, and collected all relevant evidence to preserve the integrity of the crime scene. The body has been transferred to the National Hospital for necessary procedures, and hotel staff are currently cooperating with Police investigations.
Effort is in top gear to effect the arrest of the lady.

We urge the public and media outlets to refrain from spreading unverified information, including claims of kidnapping, that may incite fear or panic. The FCT Police Command is committed to conducting a thorough investigation to uncover the circumstances surrounding Mr. Parradang’s death. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we work to ensure justice is served.

For any further inquiries, please contact the FCT Police Public Relations Office.

Student Protest Erupts at Federal University Dutsin-Ma Over Killing of Colleague

By: Our Reporter

A violent protest erupted on Friday at the Federal University Dutsin-Ma (FUDMA), Katsina State, following the alleged killing of a student by local vigilantes in Dutsin-Ma town.

The protesting students barricaded the Dutsin-Ma–Katsina highway, burning tires and disrupting vehicular movement.

The deceased student, identified as Sa’id Abdulkadir, was a 400-level student in the Faculty of Agriculture. Conflicting accounts have emerged regarding the circumstances surrounding his death.

While some reports suggest that Abdulkadir was suspected to be an informant for bandits, others claim he was mistakenly shot by security operatives while riding on a commercial motorcycle.

Sources said security personnel attempted to stop the motorcycle carrying Abdulkadir and another rider, but they refused to halt. In response, the operatives allegedly opened fire, killing Abdulkadir instantly, while the commercial motorcyclist sustained injuries and was rushed to a hospital for treatment.

In reaction to the incident, students took to the streets, demanding justice for their slain colleague.

Security operatives, including soldiers and police officers, were deployed to the scene to contain the protest and persuade the students to vacate the highway.
