BREAKING: NECO Registrar Godswill Obioma assassinated
By Abisola THOMPSON
Unknown gunmen on Monday night stormed the residence of Professor Godswill Obioma, strangling him in what his wife suspected to be an assassination.
“The assassins came in and killed him and left without taking anything,” Elizabeth Obioma told news men on Tuesday morning.
Weeping profusely, Mrs Obioma said her husband had just returned to Minna from a trip to Abuja when the armed men, lurking in his compound, descended on him and strangled him.
A police spokesman did not immediately return a request seeking comments about the development.

Mr Obioma, 67, was appointed head of NECO barely a year ago on May 14, 2020.
