The Borno State government has dismissed reports that Umara, one of the sons of Governor Babagana Zulum, was arrested for the alleged murder of an Indian.

According to social media reports, Umara, a student at a university in New Delhi, reportedly smashed a bottle of alcoholic drink on a Chinese national who showed interest in the same lady with him at a nightclub.

Debunking the reports, Abdurrahman Ahmed Bundi, Senior Special Assistant to Governor Zulum on New Media, in a statement on Wednesday, said none of the governor’s sons “was either arrested or charged with any crime, or involved in any unlawful activities anywhere.”

Bundi urged the public to exercise caution when consuming and sharing information.

The statement said: “The Borno State Governor’s media unit‘s attention has been drawn to rumours circulating that the son of the Borno State Governor has been arrested for the alleged murder of some Indian citizen.

“This misinformation was published in an online blog, titled “Son of Borno State Governor Murders Someone In India—Politics.” The blog claimed that the Governor also travelled to India, attempting to use diplomatic status to resolve the matter.

“It is on record that Governor Babagana Zulum was on a one-month vacation in Saudi Arabia for the 2024 Hajj and later travelled to Egypt to attend the annual ASUWAN forum conference in Cairo.

“The Media Unit would like to clarify and set the record straight that blogs have mischievously spread defamatory content without any speck of truth.
