The Nigerian Police Force has made two arrests linked to the killing of Ms. Laetitia Naankang Dagan, an Assistant Director of Administration at the Presidential Villa.

The arrest was made after the assassins who rape the woman left their phone behind.

A source in Aso Rock who knows about the police investigation said, “They left with Laetitia’s phones and left one of their own”.

Sources claim that Ms. Laetitia had reported some hoodlums selling drugs in her neighbour which led to a raid by police on them.

Perhaps, her assassination may have been as a result of information reaching the hoodlums that she was the informant that led to a raid on them.

It was also debunked that her death was as a result of a connection to a leaked memo involving the president's chief of staff, Abba Kyari, and the National Security Adviser, Major General Babagana Monguno.

“She was working in the Pension Department outside the Villa. There was no way, she would have come in contact with a memo from Monguno to Abba Kyari”, the source said.
