Isyaka Adamu, the elder spouse of Rugan Ardo’s Head Imam of the Nomadic Central Mosque, was killed by gunmen.

Once the thieves received the 2 million Naira ransom, Mrs. Hulaira Hussaini Ardo was shot and killed.

Obasanjonews24 reports that on February 11, 2023, robbers abducted Malam Husaini Ardo’s four wives from Rugan Ardo in Kagarko LGA and assassinated Isyaka Adamu, the Chief Imam of Rugan Ardo’s Nomadic Central Mosque.

The village was in grief over the death of their chief’s wife, according to Samaila Babangida, the Madaki of Janjala, who also verified the killing and stated the bandits would not release the victim’s body.

According to him, a ransom of 2 million Naira was paid to free the four spouses, however the older woman was killed by the robbers while the other three were freed.

He said that the elder wife was shot and murdered by the bandit leader, who then released the other three women when the ransom was given to the bandits with the promise to liberate the chief’s four wives.

“I got aboard one of the motorbikes that delivered the cash and food to them. Their commander started shooting at the senior wife once they had received the money, he claimed.

Calls and a text message addressed to the police public relations officer, DSP Mohamed Jalige, went unanswered.
