Family of retired teacher in Kaduna pays ransom, month after bandits killed him
By: Zagazola Makama
The family of a retired teacher and former Education Secretary of Kajuru Local Government in Kaduna State reportedly paid a ransom to his kidnappers months after he was killed.
Samuel Abi Dangiwa was abducted along with six others from Kufana village on the Kaduna-Kachia Road on Monday, 15 September 2025.
The tragic development was confirmed by a community leader and associate of the deceased, Chief Suleiman Gambo Maro, who disclosed that Dangiwa had been killed a month before his family fulfilled the ransom demands.
“The most devastating revelation, however, was that he had already been killed a month before ransom was even paid,” Maro said.
“His family, acting out of desperation and hope, unknowingly fulfilled the demands of criminals while their father lay buried beneath the earth.”
Chief Maro called for urgent action and accountability, emphasising that the unresolved murder had heightened despair in the community.
“Allowing the killing of Dangiwa to go unanswered would deepen frustration and despair among residents,” he stated.
“Kajuru deserves justice, proper representation, and restored dignity. This begins with uncovering the truth behind Dangiwa’s murder and holding those responsible accountable.”
