However, the Headquarters of the 23 Brigade Nigerian Army in Yola has denied the killing of the victim.
Acting Assistant Director Army Public Relations, Lt Adebayo Adewumi refuted the claims in a statement made available in Yola, yesterday.

Adewumi said the victim upon sighting the troops deployed at Sebore Nasarawo Ward, Mubi South LGA, to conduct routine patrols aimed at deterring criminal activities fled and subsequently suffered a lone accident as his motorcycle veered into a ditch nearby.

“The victim upon sighting the troops, the victim, unfortunately, fled and subsequently suffered a lone accident as his motorcycle veered into a ditch nearby.’’
