It was learnt that the suspect, after killing his kids, one Umar Abubakar (eight) and Shehu Abubakar (four), hid their corpses in sacks in the bush. City Round gathered that the corpses were recovered by the police and taken to the General Hospital, Nasko for autopsy. The suspect in a statement said, “Honestly, I don’t know what has come over me to kill my own children that God gave to me. I think something is wrong somewhere."
