    A police sergeant has shot his father to death in the Tudu area of the Maduganari community behind the Borno State Police Command headquarters in Maiduguri.

    The officer identified as Linus Wadzani was said to have shot his father multiple times. He is a Mobile Police personnel with Mopol 6, Maiduguri, and serves as a security detail at the Borno State House of Assembly.

    While briefing journalists at the Borno State Police Command Headquarters on Monday, the spokesman of the command Kenneth Daso said the deceased was a retired assistant superintendent of police.

    He said the deceased served at the state command with the Mounted Unit.

    Narrating how the incident, Daso said Sergeant Linus got home at about 4:30 pm on Sunday and had a heated argument with the father.

    This led him to fire him multiple times with an AK-47 rifle, resulting in his instant death.

    He said when police officers visited the compound of the deceased identified as Wadzani Natsiri, a family member disclosed that when Linus got home, there was no one except the father as such no one could give an account of what transpired.

    However, the spokesman said a police patrol team calmed the situation when they received a distress call.

    He said on interrogation, Sergeant Linus confessed to being under the influence of alcohol and other hard substances.

    According to him, a forensic team from the command has been assembled and blood samples of the sergeant collected to determine his mental status. An investigation has begun into the homicide, he said.
