Police probe military shooting of Adamawa businessman

The Adamawa State Police Command has launched an investigation into the alleged shooting of a businessman by military personnel in Mubi North Local Government Area.

This follows previous incidents of alleged excessive force by security personnel, including a 2024 case where an army soldier allegedly killed a man in Ganye.
