The Police have arrested a commercial driver suspected to be responsible for the death of a Vanguard Journalist, Tordue Salem.

The suspect, a 29-year-old commercial driver, Itoro Clement was paraded on Friday in Abuja.

The Force Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba said Clement was arrested following an investigation carried out by the Force Intelligence Bureau.

He said Clement who was driving a 2004 Model Camry with number plate BWR 243 BK confessed to having hit Tordue at about 10:00 pm on the night of 13th October 2021, around Mabushi area in Abuja but ran away

Explaining why he did not wait after the accident; Clement claimed that the area where the incident occurred is notorious for criminal activities.

“The place I knocked this person down, is a criminal place everybody knows that place,” he said.

Salem’s body was found on Thursday, November 11, more than a month after he went missing.

An indigene of Benue State, Salem covers the House of Representatives and was last seen on October 13, 2021, a situation that led to protest and agitation by Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) in Abuja.

It is definitely not a coincidence, maybe it is part of a ploy to eliminate the journalist which actually worked.

I hope he faces the full wrath of the law.

Well staged performance, that guy can act very well.
Re: Tordue Salem Death: Itoro Cleme, Hit-And-Run Driver Arrested By Police by xpressionx(m):
This particular story was posted earlier today.
The part where he said he fixed the side of the car he used to hit him has been omitted for reasons I don't know.

The Nigerian police that lacks intelligence gathering will catch a hit and run driver after he had escape at night where there is no CCTV.

They are giving this guy a soft landing (manslaughter) for a reason.
Either he is a politicians boy or whoever ,held for a more serious crime...because this story doesn't add up.
