Gunmen Kill UAM Lecturer

The Police Command in Benua has confirmed the killing of Karl Kwaghger, an Associate Professor with the Federal University of Agriculture Makurdi (UAM), by gunmen on Saturday night.

The late don lectured at the Mechanical Engineering Department of the university.

The state-owned Tarka Foundation houses a hotel and many other sports facilities which draw many people almost round the clock.

The command’s spokesperson, DSP Catherine Anene, on Sunday in Makurdi, said the lecturer’s body was found around 11p.m. within the Tarka Foundation premises, Makurdi.

Anene, however, said the command had yet to make any arrest or unravel the reason behind the killing, but added that investigation was ongoing.
