    GOVERNOR Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, on Saturday, said he received with shock and sadness the news of the death of Alhaji Atiku Mu’azu Buyam, a retired Permanent Secretary and former Chairman of the Gombe State Board of Internal Revenue Service, Atiku Mu’azu.

    The late Permanent Secretary was reportedly abducted and killed in Kano State, where he had been residing after his retirement from public service.

    Yahaya, in a condolence message signed by the Director-General, Press Affairs, Gombe Government House, Ismiala Uba Misilli commended the swift response of security agencies, who have since apprehended a suspect in connection with the heinous crime.

    He urged them to ensure that thorough investigations are conducted and that justice is served without delay.

    “On behalf of the government and people of Gombe State, Governor Inuwa Yahaya extends his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family, friends, and associates of the deceased, as well as the people of Kalishen in Shongom Local Government Area, where he hailed from,” the statement partly read.

    The governor prayed to Almighty Allah to grant them the strength, adding, “to bear this profound loss, forgive the shortcomings of the deceased and admit him into Aljannat Firdaus.”

    According to a viral message which was obtained by our correspondent, the deceased, who resided at Kabuga/Jan Bulo Estate along Gwarzo Road, in Kano State, received a phone call from his mechanic that his stolen car was found, urging the unsuspecting deceased to hasten to meet them to identify and retrieve the car.

    Mu’azu allegedly met them at the designated location but never returned.

    “Later, the abductors reached his family with a ransom demand of N20 million. but the family could only raise N10 million, which the abductors collected, only to later drop his dead body by the roadside of a different location. A suspect has been arrested, but the mechanic is on the run,” the message concluded.
