A 500-level student of Fr Moses Adasu University in Benue State is arrested after allegedly pouring hot water on a colleague. Police say the incident involves a neighbour or fellow student and occurs at or connected to the university community. Officers detain the suspect and begin an investigation.
Both reports cite the police as confirming the arrest and stating that enquiries are ongoing. A police spokesperson, DSP Peter Aondongu, says the matter is being investigated to understand what led to the confrontation between the two students. The outlets differ mainly in wording—one describes the target as a colleague and the other as a neighbour—but both frame it as an alleged assault using hot water and confirm that police are probing the circumstances.
