In other news… Retired Nigerian Army officer, Rabe Abubakar, and his wife, Amina Abubakar, have appeared in a video released by their captors after they were abducted along the Matazu highway in Katsina state.
The couple was allegedly abducted on May 30 while traveling from Abuja to Katsina for a wedding ceremony. According to reports, gunmen ambushed their vehicle near Zakin Baure village, while their driver escaped despite suffering a gunshot wound to his hand.
In the video, the retired general and his wife appeared unharmed as they appealed to the authorities and community leaders to facilitate their release. They reportedly relayed a request from a bandit leader identified as Kachalla Maha, who is seeking the release of some of his associates in exchange for the couple’s freedom.
These developments have caused widespread concern and renewed debates on the security situation in northern Nigeria, particularly the growing threat posed by bandit groups.
Reacting to the video, many Nigerians questioned how criminal groups continue to operate and make demands despite ongoing security operations.
