Police Officer Dies On Wedding Day In Bauchi

Neighbours, family members, friends, and members of Bauchi State police command spoke in sepulchral tones and had mournful facial expressions as news of the death of Mustapha Garba, a Superintendent of Police, spread on Saturday.

It was his wedding day, but sadly, there was no exchange of marriage vows as planned.

Mustapha died in a fatal road accident while on his way to the wedding venue.

That was not all, he died alongside two among his friends.

Team@orientactualmags.com learned that spokesman for Bauchi State Police Command, CSP Mohammed Wakil, has confirmed the development while describing it as devastating.

‘The command is in mourning. SP Mustapha Garba was on his way to attend his own wedding when the unfortunate incident occurred.

He was in the company of three friends in a Mercedes Benz car.

At Bargan Tsamiya, the vehicle lost control, veered off its lane, and had a head-on collision with an Opel Vectra coming from the opposite direction.

The Commissioner of Police, CP Auwal Sani-Omolori, upon receiving the news, immediately directed the Divisional Police Officer of Toro Division to mobilize and evacuate the victims to Toro General Hospital.

Sadly, a medical doctor at the hospital confirmed the groom and two others dead. Their bodies have been released to their families for burial’ the statement added-Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
