UNIJOS Student Abdulsalam Idris Beaten To Death By Course Mates Over N30k Bribe
Abdulsalam Idris, a 300-level medical student of the University of Jos (Unijos), died yesterday in the institution’s clinic after allegedly sustaining severe injuries following an assault by a group allegedly led by a fellow student, Fisal Dahiru Ibrahim.
Unijos’ security unit confirmed the death, saying the corpse had been transferred to the Jos University Teaching Hospital (JUTH) for autopsy.
The acting Chief Security Officer of Unijos, Agama Solomon, said the suspect claimed to have given Abdulsalam N30,000 to bribe a technician for exam grades but that when the results were released and the suspect failed he reportedly orchestrated an attack that led to Abdulsalam’s death.
He noted that the suspect had been apprehended and handed over to the police.
It was learnt that the incident occurred shortly after both the victim and the suspect completed their final examination in the 300L.
The death of Abdulsalam sparked concerns among his peers, who believed that such a violent outcome was unjustified and that he did not deserve to be treated in a manner that led to his death.
Friends Mourn
O Allah, forgive ( Idris Abdulsalam ) and elevate his station among those who are guided. Send him along the path of those who came before, and forgive us and him, O Lord of the worlds. Enlarge for him his grave and shed light upon him in it.
Indeed, we belong to Allah SWT, and Indeed, to Him, we shall return!
The soul of our Brother, Abdulsalam depart this world.
He was one of the SIMPLEST human I knew in my Secondary School days, he was CALM and INTELLIGENT.
Ya Allah! As he was CALM, May the Hereafter be CALM for him as it is for those before him.
Rest In Jannatu Firdausi, Idris Abdulsalam .
