Katsina, Nigeria – The mother of renowned political singer Dauda Kahutu, popularly known as Rarara, has been kidnapped by suspected bandits.
Sources report that Hajiya Hakima Adamu was abducted from her residence in Kahutu town, located in Danja Local Government Area of Katsina State.
According to reports, bandits invaded the village at around 1 am on Friday and kidnapped an elderly woman.
“The bandits approached on foot and silently, as they did not fire any shots during the brief operation. The woman did not resist when they instructed her to accompany them.”
“Although there were other people present in the house, the bandits only took Rarara’s mother, leaving everyone else behind. There was no attempt to confront the bandits because they were armed.”
“It seems they parked their motorcycles some distance away and then walked to the village. We are praying for the woman’s safe return because she is very important to us here. Her son, Rarara, has been very generous and brought many developments to our village.”
Attempts to contact the renowned Hausa singer by phone were unsuccessful, as his phone rang multiple times without any answer.
Details of the kidnapping are still emerging, and local authorities have yet to provide further information on the incident. The community is in shock, and efforts are underway to locate and safely rescue Hajiya Hakima Adamu.
