Police Commander Found Dead In Hotel Room In Jos

In a deeply distressing turn of events, Superintendent of Police Nahum Gwadi Eli, the Commander of A/O SWAT at the Plateau State Command, was discovered lifeless in his hotel room on October 23, 2023, in Jos, the capital of Plateau State.

The shocking discovery was made by concerned fellow officers who grew increasingly alarmed when they were unable to reach SP Nahum Eli on his phone. With mounting concern, they decided to investigate the situation further. After numerous attempts to contact him proved futile, they proceeded to his hotel room, situated along the old Airport Road.

Upon reaching the hotel room, they knocked repeatedly, yet received no response. Faced with the disconcerting silence, the officers took the decisive step of forcing open the door to Eli’s room where they found his lifeless body lying on the floor next to the bed.

“On 23rd of October, at about 5:30pm, information was received from A/0 SWAT Plateau State Command that they have not seen nor heard from their commander, SP Nahum Gwadi Eli,” a police source said.

“He didn’t report to duty and his phone was ringing, but no response. They decided to visit his hotel room, along old Airport Road, and when they got there, they knocked at the door and there was no response. They called the management of the hotel and forced the door open. He was found lying on the ground beside the bed”.

The family was contacted and the scene of the crime was visited by the Divisional Police Officer in charge of Anglo-Jos

“A Police Medical doctor was called upon and photographs were taken.  The body was removed to Plateau Specialist Hospital, where he was confirmed dead by a medical doctor.  The corpse was deposited at the same hospital mortuary for autopsy. No foul play suspected yet,” the officer said

Meanwhile, friends and family members have mourned the deceased officer.
