A shocking incident has been reported in Jigawa State, where a Quranic teacher, Musa Wada, admitted to killing and mutilating his pupil’s body to cover up his actions.
According to the police, Wada, a 45-year-old teacher from Jikas-Dabaja village, was arrested on March 13, 2025, after a tip-off. Investigations revealed that he had punished 11-year-old Bashir Adamu for skipping school. Unfortunately, during the punishment, the boy lost consciousness and died.
To hide the crime, Wada allegedly cut off the victim’s head and genital organs, dumping the body by the roadside. He then buried the severed parts on his farmland.
The case came to light when locals found a decomposing, headless body along the Jikas-Dabaja village road on March 12, 2025. Further investigations confirmed the victim was Wada’s student, leading to his arrest.
Wada has confessed to the crime and is now in police custody. Authorities have assured the public that he will face charges once investigations are complete.
