According to report, the terrorists are requesting a ransom of N60 million and five motorcycles in exchange for the release of the traditional ruler’s body for proper burial.

TheNGblog reports that the monarch who recently appealed to the government for help in a viral video was killed on Wednesday.

The 74-year-old monarch, who had worked for the government for nearly 45 years as a traditional ruler, according to BBC Hausa, was killed on Tuesday, three days after the video of him calling the government to intervene went viral.

“The news I got is that the bandits shot him on Tuesday afternoon, and those who went to discuss the payment of the ransom saw the king’s body lying there,” Shuaibu Gwanda Gobir, the mayor of Gobir, told BBC Hausa on Wednesday….CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>

A family source on Wednesday evening told SaharaReporters that the terrorists are still withholding the body of the deceased traditional ruler, conditioning its release on the payment of a ransom.

The family is now faced with the distressing possibility of being unable to provide a proper Islamic burial for their loved one if they fail to meet the terrorists’ demands of N60 million and five motorcycles.

“They said before they can release his corpse, we must give them N60 million and five motorcycles,” the family source said.
