A woman and her firstborn son, Joshua, who were abd¥cted by suspected bandits in Kaduna State, have reportedly lost their lives in captivity.
The woman was kidn@pped in December 2025 from Bayan Dutse Narayi in Kaduna South. Her abd¥ctors demanded a ransom beyond what her family and members of the community could afford.
According to a Facebook post shared on Saturday by a community member identified as Noble, the family was unable to raise the full amount within the deadline set by the kidn@ppers.
In a desperate attempt to secure his mother’s freedom, Joshua volunteered to deliver the money the family had managed to raise and negotiate her release. However, on reaching the kidn@ppers’ hideout, he reportedly discovered that his mother had already d+ed in captivity.
