Terrorists belonging to the dreaded Boko Haram terror group in the early hours of Friday abducted three traditional rulers in Nigeria’s north east state of Borno.
Two of the traditional leaders were later released by the terrorist sect, but the third, Muhammadu Idrisa Timta, the Emir of Gwoza, was killed by the kidnappers.
Report reveals that the Boko Haram terrorist kidnapped the Emirs as they made a trip to Gombe, the capital of Gombe State, to attend the funeral of the Emir of Gombe, Shehu Abubakar, who died last Tuesday in London.
The two traditional rulers who were released are identified as the Emir of Askira, Abdullahi Askirama and the Emir Of Uba, Ismaila Mamza.
