The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, has expressed disappointment over the dying of the District Head of Gatawa in Sokoto State, Isa Bawa, within the kidnappers’ den.
The bandits had kidnapped the late District Head of Gatawa and his son on July 29. The late Bawa was reported to have died in captivity.
Abbas in an announcement by his media aide, Musa Krishi on Thursday decried that the kidnap and therapy of the late emir have been inhuman.
He mentioned, “In the first place, the bandits’ kidnap of the traditional ruler was barbaric, their treatment of the late Sarkin Gobir as inhuman.”
He decried the continual kidnapping for ransom within the nation, stating that it “was unacceptable.”
The Speaker despatched heartfelt condolences to the household of the late Sarkin Gobir, the Gatawa District in Sabon Birni Local Government, the individuals, and the federal government of Sokoto State over the irreparable loss.
He prayed that “Allah would have mercy on the soul of the late Alhaji Isa Muhammad Bawa and make Jannatul Firdaus his final abode.”
