An officer of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Aliyu Imran, was brutally lynched and set ablaze by an angry mob in Gadan-Gayan, Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State, after a high-speed chase involving suspected drug dealers resulted in multiple fatalities.

The incident occurred last Friday when NDLEA operatives were pursuing a suspected drug dealer.

In a desperate attempt to evade arrest, the suspect reportedly reversed his vehicle at high speed, running over at least three people, killing them on the spot. While one source confirmed three deaths, another suggested the number could be four.

Tensions quickly escalated as residents, enraged by the tragic accident, turned on the NDLEA officers. Aliyu, an Assistant Superintendent of Narcotic 1, reportedly stepped forward to pacify the situation but was instead attacked.

According to a source within the agency who spoke anonymously, he was stabbed while his colleagues, sensing danger, fled the scene.

A police officer at the scene made an attempt to rescue Aliyu, rushing him to a nearby hospital. However, the mob later stormed the medical facility, dragged him out, and burned him to death.

The tragic incident has sparked outrage, particularly from Aliyu’s grieving family, who have accused the NDLEA of neglecting them in the aftermath of his murder.

“They have not issued a statement, nor have they reached out for condolences or compensation,” a family member lamented.

As of press time, there has been no official statement from the NDLEA regarding the incident. Efforts to reach the agency’s spokesperson for comments were unsuccessful.

“It took me getting married and giving birth to realise marriage benefits men more” — Woman shares emotional thoughts

A woman has stirred serious conversations online after opening up about how marriage and motherhood changed her perspective on life.

In a heartfelt reflection, she said it was only after getting married and giving birth that she began questioning who marriage truly benefits.

According to her, women often carry the heavier load — emotionally, physically, and mentally.

She explained that marriage can make women feel like tools, responsible for cooking, cleaning, caring for the home, and even contributing financially, while still bearing the full weight of pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare.

She questioned why something described as a “blessing” should come with so much pain, stress, sleepless nights, and emotional strain for women.

In her words, childbirth comes with intense pain, followed by years of responsibility that largely fall on the woman, while many men continue life almost unchanged.

She admitted she never strongly pushed for marriage herself and only went along with it after family pressure. It was the lived experience — not theory — that opened her eyes.

While she made it clear that she loves her son deeply and finds joy in him, she said motherhood also forced her to confront uncomfortable truths about expectations placed on women.
