Rev. Dauda Bature, Pastor of ECWA Church Nariya, Kaduna State who was kidnapped in his farm has been killed by bandits.

Rev. Joseph John, Vice President, Northern states and Abuja of the Christian Association of Nigeria ( CAN), told journalists that late Rev.  Bature was kidnapped on the 8th of November, 2021 by the bandits while working in his farm, not far from the Rigasa Train station in Kaduna state.

The bandits later demanded for ransom and Rev. Dauda’s wife took the ransom and delivered it to the bandits for the release of her husband but instead, “They kidnapped her too,” Rev John said.

On the 18th of November, the bandits released the wife and a few days later, killed the husband for unexplained reasons.

John who is also the Chairman of CAN in Kaduna state, appealed to the security agents to double their efforts in the protection of lives and properties, insisting that collecting ransom and going ahead to kill the victim, is an inhuman act that must be condemned.
