Mission in Darfur) near El-Geneina, in West Darfur," Radio Omdurman reported in an SMS news alert which gave no more details.
The Sudanese Media Center, which is close to the security apparatus, issued a similar brief report.
U.N. sources say the attack on October 2 was the deadliest in UNAMID's nearly five-year history.
Ban was "appalled and deeply saddened" by the ambush, his front man Martin Nesirky said last week.
"The secretary general urges the government of the Sudan to conduct a full investigation and to ensure that the perpetrators are swiftly brought to justice," Nesirky said.
The U.N. has regularly made such calls after the deaths of peacekeepers in Darfur, and has called such attacks a war crime.
But U.N. sources told Agence La Belle France Presse earlier Tuesday that they were unaware of anybody being brought to justice in Sudan for killing a peacekeeper.
The deaths of the Nigerians brought to 42 the number of UNAMID members killed in hostile action.
