A final year student of the Bayero University, Kano (BUK), Talatu Salihu, has been kílled by terrorists who kidnápped her together with her siblings at their place of residence in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city.
SaharaReporters gathered that Talatu was a student of Library and Information Science and she was kîlled after her family could not pay the demanded ransom to the terrorists.
Talatu’s déath was confirmed to SaharaReporters on Wednesday by her close friends in school.
“She was kidnápped together with two of her siblings in Abuja and the kidnappërs demanded over N100million for their ransom which their parents could not afford.
“They kîlled her because her family was not able to meet up with the payment of the ransom,” Talatu’s friend told SaharaReporters.
She claimed that the terrorists were still keeping Talatu's brothers and threatening to kíll them if the parents did not pay the demanded ransom.
Recently, SaharaReporters had reported several cases of kidnápping and abductions in Abuja which had raised fear among the dwellers.
For instance, an intelligence report from the Nigeria Police Force revealed that operatives intercepted a phone call between kidnappërs in Karu, a community near Abuja, and Kabusa area in the Federal Capital Territory, planning an operation on Wednesday morning.
The intelligence report sent to SaharaReporters by a military source attached to the intelligence unit, noted that the kidnápping operation was “scheduled to come in on Tuesday or January 17, 2024.”
