Hajiya Halima Adamu, the mother of the renowned Hausa singer Dauda Adamu, popularly known as Rarara, has been abducted, Daily Trust reports.
According to sources in Kahutu village, she was taken from her residence in the Danja local government area of Katsina State.
The source revealed that the abduction occurred around 1 a.m. on Friday when bandits infiltrated the village. “The bandits came on foot and silently, without firing a single shot during the operation that lasted only a few minutes. The woman did not resist when the bandits requested her to go along with them.”
Although other people were present in the house, the bandits only took Rarara’s mother, leaving the others behind. There was no attempt to confront the armed bandits as they left.
“They probably kept their motorcycles some distance away and then walked to the village. We are praying for her safe return because she is very helpful to us in this village. Her son, Rarara, is very generous and has brought many developments to our village for our well-being.”
Attempts to reach the famous Hausa singer by phone were unsuccessful, as his phones rang repeatedly without an answer.
Katsina is one of the states with a high level of insecurity in the North West region.
