2023 Election: List Of State Governors Tribunal May Sack

A man in Adamawa State, Abubakar Mohammed has been sentenced to death for reportedly killing his girlfriend and harvesting her body parts.

The assailant was sentenced by an Adamawa State High Court for murdering his girlfriend, Christiana Augustine, removing her eyeballs, and cutting her breast for a N10million price allegedly offered by a buyer.

The father of seven who hails from Jauro Tukur village in Akko Local Government Area of Gombe State, relocated to Shagari Phase II, Yola South LGA of Adamawa State in search of a means of livelihood.

He later became a water vendor and met Christiana.

He had also, in the course of time, come in contact with a man known as Buhari Mohammed, also a resident of Yola, who allegedly hinted him about a man who had indicated interest to buy eyeballs at N10 million.

The incident occurred on the 26th of January 2019 when Abubakar went to Christiana’s house to see her and to get her to meet him where they used to meet for their amorous adventure.

Christiana turned up at the uncompleted building where they had met in the past, but instead of the usual love making, Abubakar took out his knife, slit her throat, and plucked one of her eyeballs while damaging the other one in the process of trying to remove it.

However, when Abubakar took the eyeballs to Buhari the following day he expressed shock and chased him away.

The assailant was later arrested after the victim’s body was found in the uncompleted building the following day.

The Adamawa State High Court, presided over by Hon. Justice Bulila Ladokiya Ikaro, at the most recent sitting on the case on Tuesday, sentenced the convict for culpable homicide after he was tried and found guilty of being in possession of human parts.
