Terrorists have brutally killed Sarkin Gobir, a traditional ruler in Sokoto State, just days after he appeared in a viral video pleading for government intervention.
This was made known in a tweet by @Idris4Peace on his X handle, while expressing the tragic incident that shocked the local community and raised further concerns about the escalating insecurity in the region.
Sarkin Gobir was abducted by heavily armed bandits who subjected him to severe torture and dehumanizing treatment.
The terrorists later released a video showing the traditional ruler begging for his life and desperately appealing to the government to take action to secure his release.
Despite his pleas, the terrorists executed Sarkin Gobir, further highlighting the lack of security in the region and the increasing boldness of these criminal groups.
