A resident of Getawa, who disclosed this to our correspondent in Sokoto said, “One of the victims who was released, delivered the letter to the Sarkin Rakin Burkusuma.
“The letter was written in Hausa language by one of the victims kidnapped and addressed to Sarkin Rafin Burkusuma, the district head of the area. “The bandits, in the letter delivered by one of the freed kidnap victims, informed the monarch that those abducted from Gatawa and Burkusuma are all in good condition of health.
“They demanded a ransom of N20m to be paid for the release of other 19 kidnap victims comprising nine males, eight females and two children, whose names were written in the letter.” Efforts to get the reaction of Sokoto State Police Command on this development was unsuccessful, as the mobile line of the Command’s Public Relations Officer, ASP Sanusi Abubakar, cannot be reached; while sms sent to him was not replied to as of the time of filing this report.
