Aminu wanted to go out around 11:30 PM and requested security. I accompanied him with my gun. During the trip, he stopped to check his ATM, which led me to believe we were heading to a market or somewhere similar.

When I exited through another door, I shot him, took his car, and left. I killed him to steal his vehicle. He did nothing to provoke this; I acted out of theft.”

In a related development, 94 members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria were also paraded, having been arrested in connection with the death of two police officers on Sunday.
