The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists said a news editor for a government-owned radio station called Highland FM in the restive central Nigerian city of Jos was found dead in a shallow stream Thursday. Colleagues of Nansok Sallah, 46, believe he was murdered, the committee said.
Sallah previously worked for private radio station Cool FM in Abuja and Plateau State Radio and Television, the committee said.
