According to reports, the kidnappers initially demanded ₦100 million but eventually collected ₦56 million, three brand-new Samsung phones, and a ₦20,000 recharge card.

However, when the family went to receive Kadafa on November 11, unfortunately the bandits handed over his lifeless body after collecting the ransom of 56 million naira.

He was said to have sustained a gunshot wound to his leg during the fracas following his abduction, and received no medical attention throughout his two weeks in captivity.
