“While we went to Bompai for identification, she was so frightened when the suspect was brought out from the cell. She was in severe pain and her health condition worsened, as she kept on calling Baba Idi’s name.” he added.

“We rushed her to the hospital but she died arrival,” her mother Jamila said.

“This is an act of inhumanity for a neighbor to have committed this act. All I need is justice,” Adam said.
