The 200-level Home Economics student of the Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto, was stoned and burnt to d£ath in May 12, 2022, by irate youths including some people believed to be her classmates over allegations of blasphemy.
Two suspects, Bilyaminu Aliyu and Aminu Hukunci were arrested by the police and subsequently remanded.
In August 2022, spokesperson of the Sokoto State Police Command, DSP Sanusi Abubakar, said those arrested and arraigned were not the prime suspects, but among those who organized the violent riot.
The PPRO said that “efforts are being intensified to arrest the prime suspects.”
In a Facebook post on the eve of the anniversary of Deborah’s gruesome murder, Rev. Ugwu, demanded to know the progress of the case.
