The kidnappers of four children of a Kaduna chef, Aisha Kabir, have demanded N300 million ransom for their release.
The father of the children, Yunusa Adamu, who disclosed this to newsmen,, said the abductors had threatened to kill the youngest child because of his cries.
LIB reported that the children, Safa, Amina, Nasreem and Hammad, aged 14, 12, 9 and 2, were abducted in Keke A community, Chikun Local Government Area of the state on Tuesday night, November 26, 2024, when their father went to visit Aisha who was admitted to the hospital with newly born twins. By the time he returned home a night, his children were nowhere to be found.
The police, military and vigilantes were promptly notified about the suspected kidnapping.
Adamu told FIJ on Thursday morning that the kidnappers had called him the previous day with the children’s phone, which they had taken along.
He said he was able to speak with his eldest child.
“They allowed me to speak with the eldest one. They are fine, but they are not feeding them. They did not feed them and they did not give them water. They threatened to kill them with hunger,” Adamu said.
He said the kidnappers also threatened to kill the youngest child, who will turn two in December.
“They said he’s disturbing them with cries. So, instead of hunger to kill him, they will kill him themselves so that the crying will stop,” the father revealed.
“They said today is the deadline for payment. I have pleaded with them to let me gather all my assets and see what I can raise. I have contacted friends and family members to see what I can gather then we will negotiate more. Though they said today (Thursday) is the deadline, they did not give me a specific time.
“I have been praying because the line is switched off. I have been waiting for them to call back so that we can talk more.”
