Terrorists Kill Sokoto Traditional Ruler Days After Appearing In Video To Plead For Government's Help

The Sarkin Gobir of Gatawa District in Sokoto State, Alhaji Isa Muhammad Bawa in Sokoto State has been brutally killed by bandits after being abducted, tortured, and dehumanised.

Idris4Peace, announced this tragic development via his social media handle on Wednesday afternoon stating that bandits released a harrowing video showing the leader pleading for his life and desperately appealing to the government for assistance.

The post read; “Sarkin Gobir, a traditional leader in Sokoto, was executed by deadly armed bandits after being abducted, tortured, and dehumanised.

“The bandits released a video showing the leader pleading for his life and appealing to the government for help.”

Meanwhile, SaharaReporters had reported that, Bawa, who was abducted by terrorists, has cried out for help in a new video released by the gunmen.

The Emir and his son were kidnapped in July at the Kwanar Maharba area while travelling from Sokoto to his home town, Sabon Birni, the headquarters of Sabon Birni local government of Sokoto State.

“The bandits on sighting the Emir’s vehicle, started shooting guns which resulted in the tires of the vehicle bursting, and the driver losing control of the car. This forced the car to suddenly stop,” Gobir, one of his sons had said.

“The bandits abducted the district head and his driver who happens to be his biological son.”

The abductors few days after the incident requested the sum of N1 billion as ransom for the release of the victims.

In the video released online, the monarch speaking in the Hausa language narrated how they were kidnapped by the terrorists.

He said their lives are in danger in the hands of their abductors, adding that they had been suffering in the forests where they are currently held.

Pleading for help, he urged the government to urgently come to their rescue.

Also in the video, one of the gunmen can be heard speaking in Hausa dictating to the victims what to say.

Oh that! It doesn't matter , even if the whole of north is wiped out by bandits, Iswap and Boko Haram, no problem. Our main concern and focus is in Igbo land.

Insecurity everywhere Bandits, Terrorists, Kidnappers, Cultists, etc all in one country

Too bad

If you go South East, that one na problem.. if you go South West, ritualist go use you do soup.. If you go north, they will suffer you first before killing the person...

Who are the IDIOTS at Sahara Reporters still calling these people "bandits".

They are TERRORISTS!

Calling them terrorists in the body of the article is NOT enough. The title should also call them TERRORISTS.

I'm waiting for Nigeria soldiers to Storm their mosque and harass their Imam

The government will only keep blind eyes on this.

Chai...
Very heartless people.
Demanding 1billion to buy weapons and now start the real carnage!
God them!

Sokoto was once the most peaceful in the North ,in fact in the whole country. But today it's literally overran by bandits.


IBB warned against something like this, just that we nor dey try listen to elders sometimes.
He even said that's why he annulled that other election. That was basically his only reasonable reason

Emperormartin:
I'm waiting for Nigeria soldiers to Storm their mosque and harass their Imam

Don't mind the fools

Chai just like that

Madam, you have a heart of animal. Wish for your neighbour what you wish for yourself.

The North allowed their leaders bring this upon them..

I expected them to visit the homes of those Northern leaders during the protest and hold them able...but alas, they went on a looting spree..

I believe one day them go wise shaa

Simon ekpa is the problem and not bandits in the north

Business as usual, in a few days time we move on to another bad news just like this.
I am sorry for Nigeria!

And the scammers in government will call them repentant and still introduce them to the society after all these calamity against fellow human when they claim to have repeated.

MadamVanessa:

He plead for help but no security agents to protect him. Meanwhile hundreds of them protect just one man. Is this how it should be?

MadamVanessa:

Is a trying time for the North,but as usual their enemies will be put to shame,to your eyes the North will this stage,raise to its challenges and shine once again.
Do have a lovely night ahead Madam Love from the North that you do hate
