Operatives of the Police Command launched an investigation and arrested Ezekiel Simon after finding Samaila’s phone in his possession.

Simon was said to have confessed during interrogation that he and Zakka killed Samaila by hitting him with a pestle.

Zakka said he killed Samaila in revenge, accusing him of causing the deaths of his family members, including his mother, two sisters, and two daughters.

According to the statement, the police recovered Samaila’s phone and discovered the suspects had sold his motorcycle for N400,000.

Wakil said efforts are underway to recover the sold motorcycle.

“The suspects will face charges of murder, robbery, and conspiracy. The Command has urged individuals with any relevant information to come forward and assist in the investigation process,” the statement said.
