A police inspector in Sokoto, Adamu Isah, dies after collapsing shortly after participating in the police command’s weekly walkathon on Wednesday. The Sokoto State Police Command says Isah, attached to the Department of Operations, collapses after returning to the command headquarters from the exercise and later dies.
Multiple outlets report that the incident triggers condolences from senior police leadership, including the command’s Commissioner of Police, Hayatu Hassan Shaffa. Reports consistently describe the death as sudden and linked to the walkathon’s physical fitness activity, but they do not detail medical findings or whether any official cause of death has been announced. The Sokoto Police Command announces its mourning following the incident.
