Abuul, who went missing about two weeks ago in Gboko after returning from Oju, where he lectured at the state-owned institution, was killed and dumped in River Katsina-Ala.

In the course of investigations, police in Gboko arrested a young man with the cloth the lecturer wore the last day he was seen and on interrogation, the suspect confessed that the deceased was allegedly 
killed by his wife in connivance with her siblings, who also sold his car and shared the proceeds.

The mother of two was immediately arrested alongside her siblings and others mentioned in the saga. The matter had been transferred to the Command Headquarters in Makurdi for further investigation.

A family source, who spoke yesterday on condition of anonymity, told Vanguard in Makurdi that the decomposed body of the former Head of Theatre Arts Department, COE, Oju, was found stuck to the trunk of a small tree in River Katsina-Ala.

According to him, “after the revelation by his killers that he was dumped in the river two weeks ago, a search party comprising the police, family members and local divers Saturday evening discovered the badly decomposed body in the river.
