He said that after a series of investigations by the operatives, “a suspect, Abdullahi Ibrahim, a 500-level student of Veterinary Medicine, ABU, Zaria, was arrested.
We came to realise that there was a communication chat between the suspect and the deceased.
“In the communication, we saw where the suspect enticed the deceased with homosexual love and showed him his naked picture.
“When the deceased went to meet him somehow he was stabbed in the stomach and wrapped in a white cloth and dumped where he was found,” he said.
According to Oyejide, the suspect confessed to the crime during investigation.
He said that the suspect would be charged to court, “according to his offence”.
