BREAKING: Bandits have abducted Auwal Mas’ud Shitu, a 300-level Pure & Industrial Chemistry student at Umaru Musa Yar’adua University, Katsina State.
He was reportedly kidnapped on Sunday, May 17, 2026, while travelling from Charanchi to Dutsin-Ma. The abductors are demanding ₦20 million ransom, an amount the family reportedly cannot afford.
Friends and relatives are appealing for prayers as insecurity continues to tighten its grip on communities across northern Nigeria.
How many more students must be taken before authorities confront the worsening kidnapping crisis?
Beware of those around you, even in sacred places.
The abductors responsible for the murder of a Catholic priest in Kaduna have been arrested.
Meet Douglas Henry, the alleged mastermind behind the brutal killing of Reverend Father Sylvester Okechukwu. In a chilling twist, it has been revealed that Henry lived in the same compound as the priest. He reportedly connived with bandits to kidnap Father Okechukwu, expecting a payout of only N200,000 as his share.
Even more shocking is Douglas’s role within the community: he served as a keyboardist and dancer in the church, frequently performing alongside his accomplice, 33-year-old Pate Yau. This revelation raises a haunting question: Can we truly trust those around us, even in sacred spaces?

Over 200 Muslims, like chickens, you called it Accidentally in a broad daylight inside the market, same happened during Maulud in Kaduna, why only Muslims gathering 😭
Pastor Emmanuel Sunday Garba, born on 28 October 1975 and believed to be residing in Jos, Plateau State, while claiming indigeneity from Gombe State, has come under intense scrutiny for his repeated and inflammatory attacks on Islam and Muslims.
Despite presenting himself as a pastor, extensive searches across his social media platforms — including Facebook, Instagram, and other channels — have failed to uncover any verifiable evidence of his pastoral credentials, church affiliation, or formal religious training. His online profiles are dominated by toxic videos and content that consistently target Islam, Muslims, and prominent Islamic scholars, often featuring cuts clips of Muslim preachers followed by derogatory and blasphemous remarks.
Garba gained significant notoriety during the recent Jos crisis, where his daily output of unguarded utterances and provocative videos against Islam became a regular feature on social media. He frequently cuts segments from Islamic lectures or sermons and interjects with insults, further escalating tensions.
His profile surged dramatically after he openly blasphemed against Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), an act that has provoked widespread anger across Northern Nigeria. Many Muslims have called for his immediate arrest and prosecution, viewing his statements as a direct and unacceptable provocation.
Prominent X user Buhsting (@M_buhsting) captured the prevailing sentiment, writing:
“This individual is from Gombe State. He has crossed a line that must never be crossed, as he openly insulted the Messenger of peace, Prophet Muhammad (SAW), in a very offensive manner. We are law-abiding citizens and do not support taking the law into our own hands. It is the responsibility of the government and the authorities to urgently find him so that he can face justice. If no legal action is taken against him, then Muslims should not be blamed if they decide to take action themselves. Our lives and everything we own are a sacrifice for the Messenger of peace, Prophet Muhammad (SAW).”
The controversy has ignited heated debates on religious tolerance, freedom of speech, and the limits of provocation in Nigeria’s multi-faith society. Critics argue that Garba’s content is not genuine religious discourse but deliberate incitement designed to sow discord and gain notoriety. As calls for his arrest grow louder, many are watching to see how security agencies and relevant authorities respond to the escalating situation.
