Principal Murdered in Abuja Rehabilitation Centre

The principal of the Abuja Rehabilitation Centre, Bala Tsoho Musa, known as “Comrade,” has been tragically murdered by an unidentified assailant. Musa’s lifeless body was discovered late Friday night within the centre located in Kuchiko, a community in the Bwari Area Council of Abuja.

The Abuja Rehabilitation Centre was established by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) to provide skill acquisition training for individuals, including beggars and those arrested for public nuisance.

According to sources, Musa’s body was found near his wheelchair, and a piece of wood, believed to be the murder weapon, was located at the scene. Additionally, two of his mobile phones were reported missing.

A witness revealed that the incident went unnoticed by the victim’s family, possibly due to the noise from a nearby power generator. The alarm was eventually raised by a deaf maid who assists the family and was returning to the hostel when she discovered the body.

The Divisional Police Officer for Bwari, CSP Babayola Muhammad, has confirmed the incident and an investigation is underway.
