A tragic incident occurred in Bauchi State on Saturday as a Superintendent of Police, Mustapha Garba, died in a fatal road accident while on his way to his wedding.
The spokesperson for the Bauchi State Police Command, CSP Mohammed Wakil, confirmed the incident in a statement and described the event as devastating for the command.
“The command is in mourning. SP Mustapha Garba was on his way to attend his own wedding when the unfortunate incident occurred. He was in the company of three friends in a Mercedes Benz,” Wakil said.
According to the statement, the accident happened at Bargan Tsamiya when the vehicle lost control, veered off its lane, and had a head-on collision with an Opel Vectra coming from the opposite direction.
Upon receiving the heartbreaking news, the Commissioner of Police, CP Auwal Sani-Omolori, immediately directed the Divisional Police Officer of Toro Division to mobilise and evacuate the victims to Toro General Hospital.
However, the crash proved fatal for Garba and two of his companions.
“Sadly, a medical doctor at the hospital confirmed the groom and two others dead. Their bodies have been released to their families for burial,” Wakil added.
