In a tragic turn of events, a Nigerian Army University professor has reportedly died in the hands of Boko Haram, nearly a year after being abducted.
The professor, whose identity is being withheld pending family notification, was kidnapped from his residence last year in a remote region known for militant activity.
Sources close to the military confirmed that efforts to secure his release had been ongoing, but despite negotiations and rescue attempts, Boko Haram militants allegedly executed him.
The incident underscores the persistent threat posed by insurgent groups in parts of Nigeria, particularly to educators and military personnel.
Military officials have condemned the killing, describing it as a “cowardly act” and vowing to intensify operations against the insurgents.
