The school proprietor arrested over the murder of 5-year-old Hanifa Abubakar has finally opened up on why he committed the atrocity.
He confessed that he didn’t do it for ritual purposes as people had assumed. He also said he needed to relieve the current financial crisis which visited him with extreme pressure.
In his words:
“I buried her in the school. Let me clear these doubts. People are thinking that it has to do with rituals. It’s not ritual something. I buried her inside the school simply because I would not be able to find any secured place to find a hole. And this person near me was the very person that dig the hole.
I’m the school proprietor and this is my first time. I did it because of the financial crisis because the school is in a lot of debt.
I told them to drop the money at a location. I was the one that picked the money myself.
The first thing I want now is, just want to plead to those parents. I just want to plead to them. Honestly, I am so sorry about what I did to them. I have killed a very precious life.”
