A tragedy struck the Bauchi State Police Command on Saturday as one of its officers, a Superintendent of Police, Mustapha Garba, lost his life in a fatal road accident while on his way to his wedding.
Confirming the incident in a statement, the spokesperson for the Bauchi State Police Command, CSP Mohammed Wakil, described the development as devastating.
He said, “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.
“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.”
Wakil further disclosed that the state Commissioner of Police, CP Auwal Sani-Omolori, acted swiftly after receiving the heartbreaking news.
“The Commissioner of Police, CP Auwal Sani-Omolori, upon receiving the news, immediately directed the Divisional Police Officer of Toro Division to mobilise and evacuate the victims to Toro General Hospital,” Wakil said.
