The spokesman of the Sokoto state police
command, El-Mustapha Sani, has disclosed that
Moin Amsuri, a Lebanese who spent 30 years of
his life teaching mathematics in different schools
in Sokoto state, has been murdered by unknown
gunmen on Thursday.
Sani said armed robbers could likely be behind
the tragic incident, disclosing that investigation
was ongoing.
“The deceased was suspected to have been
killed by gunmen who are right now at large. The
incident was said to have occurred on Thursday
at his residence in Yauri flats, Sokoto, and it was
reported to the Gwiwa Police Station on the
same day. We are suspecting that the assailants
were armed robbers as his Toyota car is still
missing.”
The spokesman said the command would not
relent until the perpetrators of the nefarious act
were fished out and brought to justice.
The deceased who last taught at the prestigious
Nagarta College, was buried in Sokoto on Friday.
Bashir Garba, secretary to the state government,
and Ahmed Aliyu, deputy governor, were among
the dignitaries who attended his funeral.
Other highly placed Nigerians such as former
President Shehu Shagari and Ahamadu Bello,
premier of the then Northern Nigeria were also
