According to a post by security analyst Zagazola Makama on social media, the incident occurred on Friday night during a dispute involving Faiza and a 13-year-old boy, Khalifa Abubakar Bashir, a resident of the Kamfanin Kobo neighbourhood.

During the altercation, Hajara Bashir, the mother of the teenage boy, intervened but was allegedly grabbed by the neck by Faiza. She reportedly collapsed and was rushed to a nearby clinic, where she was pronounced dead by a doctor.

Faiza was subsequently arrested and detained by the police. The deceased’s body was released to her family for burial in accordance with Islamic rites, after they declined a post-mortem examination.

Police authorities say investigations into the circumstances surrounding the incident are ongoing.
