In a video, Sheikh Danfili revealed the shocking details of the incident. Danfili said, “The bandits have kidnapped my close relatives, though I prefer not to disclose their names. They were on their way to a village when they were attacked and taken. The driver was killed instantly, and the bandits used his flesh to feed their dogs.
Sheikh Danfili explained that the bandits have requested a large sum of money as ransom, which his family cannot afford. The deadline for the payment is fast approaching, and the cleric fears for the lives of his relatives. He said, “They have given us a deadline to pay the ransom or they will kill all the captives. I fear they will follow through, especially after the recent killing of a traditional ruler in the state by his abductors.”
Sheikh Danfili, who makes a living teaching religious books, said he does not have the financial resources to meet the bandits’ demands. He is pleading for public assistance to help secure the release of his relatives.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
