Terrorists threaten to abduct Buhari, El-Rufai

Terrorists have issued a threat to President Muhammadu Buhari and Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, vowing to take them captive.

The threat comes amid worsening insecurity in Nigeria. Recently, terrorists attacked the presidential media team on its way to Daura in Katsina, Buhari’s hometown.

One of the gunmen, who kidnapped Abuja-Kaduna train passengers on March 28, made the threat in a video which went viral on social media on Sunday.

The unidentified man said they would also go after prominent people and destabilise the country if the government does not pay ransom for the freedom of the passengers.

He also threatened to kill and sell off some of the remaining passengers in their custody.
