An unnamed police inspector has reportedly committed suicide in Maiduguri, Borno State capital.
The inspector was attached to Gwange Divisional of the state Police command.
Witnesses said he was healthy when sighted three days ago as they could not say why the officeer committed suicide.
The late officer’s neighbors on Layin Bayan, Wulari Jerusalem area of Maiduguri raised the alarm on Saturday morning when they noticed his door was locked from behind and a strange oduor was oozing from there.
The matter was immediately reported to Metro Division of the Command which deployed to the scene.
“It was early this morning that people in the compound felt strange odour emanating from his apartment; his door was shut from behind.
“The men of police from Metro and Gwange Divisions respectively came to break the door and his lifeless body was found on the floor of his bedroom. They are currently in the compound.” the source said.
The state command was yet to issue a statement on the incident as at the time of filing this report.
