Bandits have reportedly killed an abducted Kaduna farmer, Ibrahim Kadafa, after collecting N56 million ransom and other valuables from his family following his abduction along the Kaduna-Abuja highway.
Kadafa, also known as Ibro, was kidnapped alongside his friend,, Mustapha Shelpidi, on October 28, 2026 while they were harvesting Soybeans at Alheri Camp farm.
The kidnappers demanded N100 million from the family but later accepted N56 million, three brand-new Samsung mobile phones, and a N20,000 airtime recharge card However, when the family went to receive Kadafa in November 11, the abductors handed over his lifeless body instead of releasing him alive.
Sources said the farmer sustained a gunshot wound to his leg during the incident surrounding his abduction but was not given medical attention throughout his two weeks in captivity. The family reportedly paid the ransom and provided the additional items in the hope of securing his release, only to receive his corpse.
The circumstances surrounding his death and the whereabouts of his abducted friend remain unclear, as the family awaits further answers over what happened to him while in the kidnappers custody.
