Missing Journalist Found Dead Inside Soakaway

A journalist in Zamfara state, Hamisu Danjibga, who was declared missing earlier this week, has been found dead.

Danjibga was declared missing three days ago after his friends and family members were unable to reach him.

The news of his death was disclosed in a statement released by the secretary of the Nigeria Union Journalist (NUJ).

Hamisu Danjibga is a reporter with Voice of Nigeria (VON) whose body was found in a soakaway behind his house three days after missing.

After breaking the sock away the dead body was confirmed to be that of Danjibga by his family and some neighbors. His funeral rites have since been observed according to Islamic injunctions.

The Union extends its heartfelt condolence to the family, Voice of Nigeria, and the entire Zamfara state.

The discovery of his corpse was a result of an unpleasant odor observed by Islamiya Children in the evening of Wednesday 20th September 2023 who drew the attention of their teachers.
