Yet to be identified persons have murdered Dr Kamar Abdulkadir, a lecturer in the Department of Physical and Health Education at the University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID).
It was gathered that the lecturer was killed in his office.
Abdulkadir met his untimely death on Sunday when the assailants sneaked into his office and attacked him with a knife and hammer.
The incident was disclosed in Monday by Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency expert and security analyst in the Lake Chad, in a post on his X handle.
Makama said that the victim was later found dead with several injuries inflicted on his body by his killers.
The killers also made away with his vehicle and other valuables.
Makama added, “His hands were peeled off when he tried to stop the attackers from stabbing him. They also used a hammer to smash his head and his spinal cord, killing him instantly.”
Neither the Borno State Police Command nor the university authorities has issued any statement in respect to the murder of the lecturer as at the time of filing this report.
