The Ardo of Panyam in Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau state, Alhaji Adamu Gabdo has been killed by gunmen.

Transition Committee Chairman of Mangu Local Government Area, Markus Artu, who confirmed the murder, described it as ‘barbaric’, and ‘a deliberate act by hoodlums to plunge the council into another round of chaos’.

Artu disclosed that security operatives are on the trail of perpetrators, adding that Mangu people have since resolved to live peacefully with each other, irrespective of tribe or religion, and would not allow anyone come between them.

LIB had reported that kidnappers invaded the victims’ residence opposite the Government Science Technical College (GSTC), Abaji last Tuesday night, October 21, and whisked away the principal, his wife, and his daughter.

The principal said he and his daughter trekked through the forest throughout the night until they arrived at the kidnappers’ camp “On that very night, we walked throughout the night till dawn. As the morning set in, they kept us in a valley until it was getting dark again before we continued trekking until we arrived at their camp,” he said. According to him, his abductors fed him and his daughter with garri and yam, which, he said, they harvested from some people’s farms near the camp.

He added that apart from the N3.1 million cash ransom, the kidnappers also collected two cartons of malt, one carton of milk, bread, and some packets of cigarettes The principal thanked his colleagues, friends, and family members for their support and prayers.
