The Nasarawa State Police Command has commenced investigation into the alleged murder of one Joseph Achuku.

The command’s Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Idrisu Kennedy, told the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, that available information indicated that the killing might not be unconnected with the N7.4 million the victim won in the Bet-Naija game.

He said the remains which were deposited at Dalhatu Araf Specialist Hospital mortuary were released to the family of the deceased on Tuesday for burial.
