However, the police later arrived the family compound of the student and deposited his corpse before driving away, which prompted the youth in the area to pick the corpse in a casket and marched to the palace of the Lamido of Adamawa to lodge a complaint.
Eyewitnesses also say the youth became agitated and stormed the police station only to find the place deserted as all the police officers there, fearing attacks, had fled.
When contacted, the spokesperson of the Adamawa command of the Nigeria police, Altine Daniel, said, "I am not aware of this story. We will keep you posted." Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
