Dauda Ahmad, who is the prime suspect, was accused of leading others to attack and hack Mrs. Agbahime to death. .If found guilty, he could face the death penalty. 

A witness said the deceased was involved in an argument with another person within the market and, in the cause of the argument, she allegedly made a remark, which led to Ahmad slapping her severally on the face before shouting Allahu Akbar with the intent to caused religious upheaval.

As Ahmad shouted Allahu Akbar, Abdullahi Mustapha, Zubairu Abubakar joined him, while others at large, including Salawiyu, Ibrahim, Dini, Isiyaku Mada, Mallam Sani and Yunusa Sufi, also accompanied them to Mrs. Agbahime’s shop located on the first floor, where they beat her with sticks causing serious injuries that led to her death.
Meanwhile, two of the suspects pleaded not guilty to the four charges, while Abdullahi Mustapha and Zubairu Abubakar said they were not even at the scene of the incident. 

The Chief Magistrate Muhammad Jibrin adjourned the case to June 28 to allow police complete investigations.
