Laminu Saminu, a 29-year-old schoolteacher, has been arrested by the Katsina State Police Command for the horrific killing of his friend, Sanusi Bawa, an officer of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).

The suspect, who admitted to the crime, said he served Bawa the locally prepared cow milk known as “Fura da Nono,” which he had mixed with rat poison, because he wanted Bawa’s car.

He tricked Bawa into parking his car in the house’s garage, and then served him the poisoned Fura da Nono meal, which caused the deceased to lose consciousness.
