Mustapha said:

“The soldier came with his mechanic to buy car parts at the market on Thursday. During the process, he argued with one of the mechanics at the market. The soldier used an object to hit the mechanic on his head.”

He went further to reveal that it was after this that the soldier brought out the knife. Another mechanic tried to stop the soldier from using the knife, but it was too late, as he used the knife to stab the mechanic and kill him.

The incident happened weeks after a major business hub in the Nigeria capital was shut down for weeks over the assault of soldiers.
