A renowned cleric in Sokoto state, Sheikh Bashar Danfili, has revealed that bandits kidnapped six of his relatives, k!lled their driver and fed his flesh to dogs.
The cleric who disclosed this in a post on social media, said the victims including a man, his mother, stepmother, two wives and sister were abducted on their way to an undisclosed village.
He said the bandits had demanded huge amount of money which they could not raise, adding that the deadline was fast approaching.
“The bandits have kidnapped my close relatives. I don’t want to disclose their names,” he said.
“They were on their way to a village when they were attacked and kidnapped.
“Their driver was k!lled on the spot and the bandits fed their dogs with his flesh.
“But the rest are still in captivity, including a husband, his mother, stepmother, two wives and his sister.
“The bandits have demanded a huge amount of money, which runs into millions of Naira. We cannot raise it
“I am a scholar, I don’t have anything. My job is only to teach people with the books that you can see behind me.
“And they gave us a deadline within which the money must be paid or they would k!ll all of them.
“I know they can do that, looking at what happened recently to a traditional ruler in the state, who was killed by his abductors
“Therefore, I am pleading for help from the general public so that we can be able to pay the ransom and get them released."
