The Kaduna State Police Command operatives are after the killers of National Youth Service Corps member, Grace Chalya Silas brutally stabbed to death in Kaduna State.

Grace was stabbed to death in Barnawa area of Kaduna, Northwest Nigeria on Wednesday morning.

The Command’s Spokesman, ASP Mansir Hassan disclosed that since the incident was reported to the police, the Kaduna State Commissioner of Police, CP Musa Yusuf Garba, directed the Barnawa DPO and Area Commander, to immediately hunt for killers of the Corps member and fish out the perpetrators of the dastardly act.

He explained that when the case was reported to the police, operatives responded swiftly and moved to the scene of the crime where they saw the victim in the pool of her own blood.

The Spokesperson added that Silas was rushed to the clinic, where she was later confirmed dead.

He said the command was already in touch with NYSC in the state, and described the corps member’s death a very tragic, saying that she was performing her early morning jogging when some miscreants on motorcycles pounced on her.

Hassan said Grace Chalya Silas was a Corps member serving in Kaduna South.
