A 17-year-old boy, Musa Muhammad, has died following a fight with his childhood friend over tap water in the Rijiyar Lemo area of Kano State.
According to a statement from the Kano State Police Command, the incident occurred on Saturday around 11:00 a.m.
The boy’s father, Muhammad Haruna, reported the case to the Bachirawa Police Station, stating that his son had gone to fetch water when he got into an argument with his 16-year-old friend, Muhammad Aliyu.
