A promising PhD student has had his life cut short after being crushed to death by a speeding car
after being ordered to lie on the ground by bandits in Kaduna.
The man identified as Joseph Imoter was a PhD student at the Nigerian Defence Academy before his sad death.
According to Ben Agande who shared the sad story, Imoter left behind a young wife and little children.
Agande took to Facebook and wrote:
“Very very shocked when I received the news of untimely and brutal death of this extremely good Youngman. I met Joseph Imoter when I was posted to Kaduna by my organisation. A very organised, cerebral and focused family man.
He was pursuing his PhD in History and War Studies at the Nigerian Defence Academy before he was crushed by a truck when he was forced at gun point by bandits on Makurdi-Lafiya road to remain on the road as a speeding truck approached.
He could not buy his freedom. May God console his young wife and little children.
Rest in peace, boki. Kai. This is very painful.”
