He was tragically confirmed dead at the scene at around 12.30am.

Family Tribute

In a statement, Adisu's family said: "Adisu was the youngest member of our family, deeply loved and cherished by all of us. "He was a kind, respectful, and valued person whose presence touched the lives of many. "He will be remembered for his generosity, warmth, sense of humour, dedication, and for the way he cared for those around him. "To us, he was more than the circumstances of his passing. He was a son, a brother, an uncle, a friend, someone who brought light into the lives of others. "His absence leaves a profound void that cannot be filled. No parent, nor any brother or sister, should ever have to bury a loved one so young. We want justice for what happened. "No one should ever have to go through such a tragedy, and Adisu did not deserve to lose his life in this way. "We sincerely hope that justice will be served. We ask that he be remembered for the person he was and the life he lived, rather than the circumstances of his passing. "Our thoughts remain with all who knew and loved him. He will always be in our hearts. Rest in peace."
