Terrorists, called bandits by locals, have killed Rev. Dauda Bature of ECWA Church Nariya, Kaduna State who was kidnapped in his farm.
Rev. Joseph John Hayab, Vice President, Northern States and Abuja of the Christian Association of Nigeria ( CAN), had told journalists that Bature was kidnapped on November 8 by bandits while in his farm, not far from the Rigasa Train Station in Kaduna State.
His abductors later demanded ransom and his wife took the ransom and delivered it to them.
“They kidnapped her too,” Hayab said.
On November 18, the bandits released the wife and, a few days later, they killed the husband.
Hayab, who is also the Chairman of CAN in Kaduna State, appealed to security agents to redouble their efforts in the protection of lives and property, insisting that collecting ransom and going ahead to kill the victim is an inhuman act that must be condemned.
