A Yobe State High Court in Damaturu sentences 45-year-old Abubakar Musa, also known as “Daddy,” to death by hanging for the killing of his wife, Ammi Adamu Mamman. The court convicts him of culpable homicide after finding the prosecution established guilt beyond reasonable doubt.
Outlets largely report the same verdict and core case details, including Musa’s arrest on January 4, 2024, following his wife’s death at New Bra-Bra Estate, Damaturu. One report notes the verdict comes roughly two years after the crime was committed, while others emphasize the court’s determination that the evidence met the threshold for conviction. None of the summaries provided include appeals, trial claims from the defence, or statements from prosecutors or the family.
