Nothing wrong in what he has done. If you don't like it go to court! After all he just killed an Igbo child whose life doesn't matter. Why arrest a man from katsina for killing a child of an Igbo man? Release him please.

There are several Igbo children killed in southern kaduna and Benue nobody has been arrested. Just because of one child killed in katsina and you hurriedly arrested the man why na?
