A statement by the Nigerian Army said Inusa was found dead today at about 6pm.
The statement said preliminary investigation revealed that the late senior officer was most likely killed the same day he was kidnapped by his abductors.
This is because the body was found already decomposing around Ajyaita village, off Eastern Bypass, Kaduna.
The statement said that arrangements are in progress to move the body to 44 Nigerian Army Reference Hospital, Kaduna.
The statement said: “We wish to state in unmistakable terms that whoever is behind his abduction and murder would be fished out to face the full wrath of the law.”
Colonel Samaila Musa was kidnapped on Sunday near Kaduna Refinery by heavily armed men. His wife and children who were said to be in the car with him were asked to disembark as the kidnapper drove the car with him away.
The kidnappers were said to have taken the Abuja-Kaduna expressway heading for a thick forest. [myad]
