The victim, Ms Zubaida Nuhu
A postgraduate student of the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, Ms Zubaida Nuhu, has been found dead at Tamburawa river, Kano.
It is suspected that the woman committed suicide. Before her death, Ms Nuhu who was running a Masters programme at the Department of Water Resources Engineering and was about to start work in the same department as a graduate assistant, was found dead on Saturday, February 3.
Speaking to Premium Times, a sand excavator, Ibrahim Musa said the deceased arrived Tamburawa and asked for “the deepest part of the river.” That was the last time anyone saw her alive. Her step-father, Tajuddeen Alhaji, said Nuhu left home on Saturday to withdraw money for a journey to Zaria.
“On that fateful Saturday around 11.00 a.m she told her mother she wanted go to withdraw money from ATM. Few minutes later, she sent her phone and purse to her mother. Her mother called me around 4.00 p.m that Zubaida left home to withdraw money since 11.00 a.m but hasn’t comeback. Immediately I notified police and local radio stations,” he said.
Mr. Tajuddeen said he later received a call notifying him of the discovery of a corpse of a female at Tamburawa river along Zaria road, Kano.
“When we checked, we found it was Zubaida’s corpse,” he said.
Rabiu Sadauki Kura shared the photos of the late victim on social media.
