A legal practitioner, Hashim Abdullahi, Esq., has been abducted by gunmen while returning from the recently concluded Muslim Lawyers Association of Nigeria (MULAN) National Conference held in Kano State.

The news of his abduction was confirmed by Sa’idu Muhammad Tudunwada, the immediate past national president of MULAN, in an official statement obtained by NigerianSketch.

According to the statement, Hashim was intercepted and taken hostage while traveling back to his base in Kebbi State after attending the annual conference.

According to Tudunwada, the captors have established contact with the victim’s family and associates. The initial ransom demand of 200 million Naira—which later hovered around 100 million Naira—has reportedly been reduced by the kidnappers.

The abductors are now demanding a ransom sum of 50 million Naira, alongside five Boxer motorcycles, as a condition for his release.

Why must conferences be held in person when Nigeria is at war?

Why are people so resistant to conducting their meetings via video conferencing?

Why do otherwise rational people venture onto roads in the badlands of northern Nigerianistan?

Is it religious indoctrination that deludes people to think that PRAYERS before careless road travel are a viable substitute for common sense?

It's well, they even kidnapped Muslims too, what these politicians did prior to 2015 general election was evil. All in a bid to remove Jonathan by the APC.

Is it everybody that has the wherewithal to travel by air? Don't just assume that everybody lives as comfortable as you are.

Air travel was not required for this man to attend his conference, because he could have done so by video link. My comment was comparing the ease and safety of video conferencing to the extreme danger of road travel, especially in the kidnapper-infested northern Nigerian war zones.

The kidnapped and slain army general that made the news recently was attending a wedding, which entailed driving along roads KNOWN to be targeted by terrorists and kidnappers. That military man should have known that the pistol he was authorized to carry for self protection would be no match for a gang of men with assault rifles.

But for the grievous errors made by both these men to travel along perilous roads for frivolous reasons, they would both still be alive and free today.

I agree with you people from Zamfara-Sokoto-Kebbi and parts of Katsina need to limit unnecessary journeys due to the worsening insecurity in that axis. May God protect us from meeting people of the underworld wherever they are in this world.

With all the Kidnapping cases i have not seen the police or military set up a decor to attract these kidnappers , traveling in the same route as ordinary civilians but their arms under there cloth , pretend as if they have vehicle breakdown to lure the kidnappers out.

Our security agents seems not to have sense
