A lawmaker representing Dass Local Government in the Bauchi State House of Assembly, Bala Ali Lukshi, said kidnappers killed his son, Mustapha Bala Ali, after collecting ransom twice.<\/p>\n

WITHIN NIGERIA had earlier reported that unknown gunmen kidnapped and murdered<\/a> the lawmaker’s eldest son, Mustapha.<\/p>\n

It was gathered that the kidnappers abducted Mustapha in Dass, and demanded millions of naira for his release.<\/p>\n

Speaking with Labari Daga Bauchi on Tuesday, the lawmaker said that after paying ransom, the kidnappers<\/a> told him where he will find his son.<\/p>\n

“After reaching there, we could not find anyone. We were making phone calls with those people. They collected the money they asked me to bring, but later told me that I submitted the money late and I needed to add more,” the lawmaker said although he did not reveal the amount paid.<\/p>\n

“I was one day late ahead of their deadline because the money was not complete then. They threatened to kill the boy. At that point, I added another money for them as they requested,” he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last time we spoke was eight days ago, and from then they were not specific in all their conversations. I even pleaded with them that his mother wanted to hear his voice but they failed to connect us with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

The lawmaker added that the terrorists at a point told him they have killed his son and subsequently, they refused to pick up his calls.<\/p>\n

“That is why I asked our Liman to proceed with a funeral service for him even if he will return afterwards. Although I am not certain about his death, I\u2019m hopeless for now.” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
