THE Adamawa State Commissioner of Police, Audu Madaki, on Thursday, promised a handsome reward for anyone with useful information that would lead to the arrest of killers of a journalist, Maxwell Nashion, in Yola.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that some unknown assailants had on Wednesday attacked Nashion, a staff of Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN) F.M station, popularly known as Fombina FM Yola, leading to his death.

The Spokesman of the command, DSP Suleiman Yahaya, who announced the reward to journalists in Yola, said that the commissioner was unhappy over the incident and would ensure that the killers were apprehended.

Yahaya, who did not disclose the amount set aside by the commissioner for anyone with relevant information, said that something reasonable would be given as the reward.

He said that the police had commenced an investigation and 24-hour surveillance to effect the arrest of the killers.

The deceased, who was born in 1980, joined FRCN in 2011, is survived by a father, mother, and siblings. (NAN)
