Reacting to the incident, Commissioner of Police Bauchi State Command, Auwal Musa Mohammed in a statement signed by Spokesperson of the Command, Ahmed Mohammed Wakil, frowned at the action of the irate youths who instead of taking the suspect to the Police for proper investigation and prosecution, lynched the suspect for the alleged offence to death without any recourse to the law.

He described the act as barbaric and inimical to the law governing our dear country, adding that the police will not tolerate or allow some recalcitrant in the society to take the laws into their hands.
The Commissioner of Police said nobody has the right to treat a suspect in such a brutal manner and it is wrong for anyone to assume the position of a law enforcement agency.
