APC women leader confesses to working with bandits

Aisha Abubakar, a women leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Katsina State, has admitted to serving as an informant for bandits, receiving only N5,000 from a ransom of N9 million and a motorcycle.

Abubakar reportedly orchestrated the kidnapping of five family members of the APC chairman of Tsaiyaya Ward and was compensated with the said N5,000.

In a widely circulated interrogation video, Abubakar detailed how she provided information that led to the abduction of Alhaji Sanusi, his two wives, and three children in the Matazu Local Government Area of Katsina State.

She also confessed to being involved in a cattle rustling operation, for which she received N20,000.

“I was approached by one Zainab, who is now at large, to provide information on Alhaji Sanusi and the APC chairman’s family to facilitate a successful kidnapping, and I did.

“After the ransom of N9 million and a motorcycle was paid, I was given a share of N5,000, with a balance of N15,000 to be paid after I returned from a wedding ceremony in Zaria.

“Other key actors within the Tsaiyaya community included Yahaya, Audu na Bani, and the children of Bashar.

“I was also a key informant in a successful cattle rustling operation in Tsaiyaya some time ago, and I received N20,000 from that operation,” Abubakar confessed.
