A 30-year-old man identified as Abbas Musa has been beaten to death by youths in Gwada, Shiroro Local Government Area of Niger State, for attempting to abduct a three-year-old boy from an Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camp.

DSP Abiodun said, “One Abbas Musa, aged 30, of Sha-Kwana, Zumba, was lynched by a mob. The suspect was found in possession of a baby suspected to have been stolen from Jaga-Jaga area of Gwada, and not in an IDP camp as speculated.”
