In a recent video shared by NTA, Abubakar Aliu, a young man from Gauraki village in Zaria local government area who was buried alive by his cousin over a disagreement has shared his ordeal.




Aliu said the disagreement started in Abuja where he was accused of stealing his cousin’s phone while they were working together as laborers. He said the situation escalated when his cousin lured him to Zaria under the pretense of a job opportunity. He said upon arrival, he was ambushed and beaten until he lost consciousness.


Speaking further, Aliu said his attackers then buried him alive in an uncompleted building just a few meters from his family home. He also described how his captors stripped him of his clothing, leaving him only in his shorts, and warned him that they would return to cover his head before leaving him to die.


While narrating the incident, Aliu said “They beat me and tied me up until I lost consciousness before they buried me alive in an uncompleted building few meters away from our family house. They removed all my clothes but my short knicker and told me that they will cover my head too when they come back”.

Image
 The Executive Vice President of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (Downstream), Adedapo Segun, has emphasised the need for a perfectly competitive market to ensure stable fuel prices and supply in Nigeria. He expressed concern that the current pump price does not accurately reflect prevailing market conditions. Segun made this statement during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show on Thursday. “The pump price today is not market reflective. NNPCL is the sole importer of PMS in the country, which is abnormal. We should be moving towards a situation where the free market determines prices,” he said, stressing that market forces, rather than any single entity, should dictate fuel prices.
