The father of the Speaker of Zamfara State House of Assembly has been with kidnappers since August.

“A former Commissioner, who is from Zurmi, has been in the forefront of the negotiations with the bandits. Halilu Kachalla tried his best but you know they are having problem with most of the bandits leaders in the state because they believe he is now inching closer to the state government.

“So, the former Commissioner told the Speaker that they should go ahead and pay the ransom because Kachalla had failed in the negotiation,” he said.“All I know is that some of our people in Shinkafi and Zurmi took the money to the Turji camp but they didn’t even meet him . They discussed with one of his top commanders, Dan Bukkolo, who told them that the order was that they should go back with the money,” he said.

This is coming a few days after bandits burnt down houses belonging to the speaker, his father and uncle in Magarya village.
