Painful as Corps Member Stabbed To Death While Jogging In Kaduna

A Member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) identified as Grace Chalya Silas, was brutally murdered by some yet to be identified assailants suspected to be armed robbers in Kaduna State.

 

Details of the Incident are still sketchy at the time of filing this Report but it was gathered that the University of Jos graduate was killed and robbed while jogging on Wednesday morning, October 18, 2023.

 

 

Meanwhile, friends and former course mates have taken to Facebook to mourn her.

 

“No na. What is really happening to Jossite and Special Education department! We haven’t finished mourning Kekefas Emmanuel and now it’s Chalya, brutally killed in Kaduna during her morning jogging while serving her father land. May your killer’s know no peace chalya. This is too much to bear,” one Comfort Elisha wrote.

 

 

Another friend wrote: “What is life all about? Struggle and just be killed by anyone while u go for morning jugging? Or u sleep and don’t wake up? What is life? What is life? What is life? Chalya, u left a big wound, that will take a while to heal. The people behind your death shall no know peace. It’s hard to say goodbye. But rest well with the Lord”.
