Slain Colonel Samaila Inusa laid to rest according
to Islamic rites at Ribadu Cantonment, Kaduna on
Wednesday 28 March 2016. The colonel was
kidnapped on Sunday March 27 in Kaduna, and
was found dead at about 6.00pm on Tuesday, the
Army said.
A statement from the Acting Director, Army Public
Relations, Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman, said
Colonel Inusa’s body was found in Kaduna, and
he was suspected to have been killed on the day
he was kidnapped.
“ Preliminary investigation revealed that most
likely the late senior officer was killed same day
he was kidnapped by his abductors. This is
because the body was found already
decomposing around Ajyaita village off Eastern
Bypass Kaduna, Kaduna State,” Usman said.
Colonel Usman warned that whoever was behind
his abduction and murder would be fished out to
face the full wrath of the law.
The late Colonel was kidnapped while in his
Mercedes-Benz car with his wife by some gunmen
around Kamazo, along Kaduna Refinery Road in
Chikun LGA of Kaduna State. They dropped off his
wife and left with him, heading towards Abuja.
