The police have detained a commercial driver accused of being responsible for the murder of Tordue Salem, a Vanguard Journalist.

Itoro Clement, a 29-year-old commercial driver, was paraded in Abuja on Friday.

According to the Force Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba, Clement was detained following an investigation by the Force Intelligence Bureau.

He said Clement who was driving a 2004 Model Camry with number plate BWR 243 BK confessed to having hit Tordue at about 10:00 pm on the night of 13th October 2021, around Mabushi area in Abuja but ran away.

The driver, during interrogation, said, “I thought it was an armed robber that I knocked down until the following day when I saw a smashed phone on my windscreen. The phone was not working again so I threw it away.”

Clement said that the neighborhood where the event happened is infamous for criminal activity, which is why he did not wait after the accident.

“The place I knocked this person down, is a criminal place everybody knows that place,” he said.

Salem’s body was found on Thursday, November 11, more than a month after he went missing.

An indigene of Benue State, Salem covers the House of Representatives and was last seen on October 13, 2021, a situation that led to protest and agitation by Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) in Abuja.
