Emmanuel, who lives in Magajia in Niger state in Rijaw Local government with his family said he was in Sokoto when the unfortunate incident happened and that he witnessed the murder of his daughter, while also revealing the tragic incident took place in the presence of over 100 guards, DSS operatives.
Deborah’s Father also said; “That Thursday morning around 9.00 am, she called me on her phone to say that some people wanted to kill her. I quickly left where I was and went to her school. On getting there, I saw a huge crowd of these boys and girls.
“The school authorities had taken her and locked her and another girl at the security gate by the school entrance.
“I then decided to report the matter to the police that there was a problem at the school. The police responded that I had no right to report what was happening in the school; the school was supposed to call them.
“I told them that I am a citizen of Nigeria and I have the right to report any wrongdoing happening anywhere if it affects me or anybody. So, they gave me two police officers in plain clothes.
“On arrival at the school, they saw that the situation was beyond what they could handle.” he said “They called the DPO, the area command, police headquarters and the DSS office. The DSS arrived first on the scene and began shooting in the air to disperse the mob, some of whom ran away.
“They attempted to rescue her but the door of the security post was locked with a padlock and the person holding the key was not there. Later, more police officers arrived and began to shoot teargas all over the place.
“As this continued, more mobs from the adjourning communities began to arrive, all the passersby by the road because the school is on the express road, began to troop in, and the crowd was much.
“At about 11 am, more police officers, civil defence and DSS were around and were teargassing the whole place. Rather than break the door and rescue her, they were waiting for the person with the key. Soon, the person came and in bringing her out, the mob took hold of her.
“As they were struggling with the security men, one of the mob hit her on the head with a huge iron rod and she fell to the ground.
“That was how they began to stone her, hit her with rods and sticks and she died. She was killed in the presence of all the security agents.
“After they killed her, the mob was jubilant that they killed her. The students and people from the villages were all shouting Allah Akbar, Allahu Akbar.
“They were all happy and jubilating. Different people began to say, ‘I am the one that killed her’, ‘I am the one that killed her’.
“After some twenty to thirty minutes, a lady in hijab, one of her schoolmates, began to shout, a kone ta, a kone ta, akone ta, meaning ‘set her body ablaze, set her body ablaze.
“That was when they gathered tires, and one of the boys brought his machine from where they siphoned the fuel, which they poured on the tires and set her body ablaze.
“After about two hours, the school authority and the police officers took her body to the mortuary.
“More than 100 policemen were there. They were more than one hundred. The DSS people there were not many. The DSS people tried to rescue her but left it to the police when they came in about five to seven vehicles, including the civil defence. But see what eventually happened.”
Following the death of Deborah Samuel, Sokoto police force has since arrested two suspect and have been remande Sokoto Correctional Centre.
