Nigerians React As Gunmen Kidnap Father-In-Law Of Buhari’s ADC In Daura
A storm of reactions by Nigerians has greeted the kidnap of district head of Daura, Alhaji Musa Umar in Daura, Katsina state, the home country of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Naija News had reported earlier that the kidnappers stormed Umar’s Daura residence around 7 pm on Wednesday, and sporadically shot into the air, scaring bystanders away before Umar was kidnapped.
This online news platform learned that Umar had just returned from the mosque where he took part in the evening prayer when the incident happened.
Umar was sitting in front of his house with some people when the kidnappers came in a Peugeot 406 saloon car.
The victim, a former officer of the Nigeria Customs Service (NSC), is reported to be the father of Fatima Musa, wife of Mohammed Abubakar, Buhari’s aide de camp (ADC).
Moments after the news of the kidnap broke, Nigerians took to the micro-blogging site, Twitter, to air their opinions on the matter.
Naija News captured some of the reactions below…

PMB is effectively ruling the Country from UK as @GarShehu emphatically stated. I sympathetise with the Daura District head, it is the Next Level experience, he promised that it will be tougher. Charity begins at home. PMB has finally taken his good governance mantra to his town.
