Obadofin, a major cashew farmer was abducted on Easter Monday from his farm in Aghara area at about 11pm. The gunmen also shot dead one madam Toyin Onare, a widow, who was in the farm as a labourer.

Onare was rushed to hospital in Kabba, headquarter of the LGA, about 35 minutes drive away. Unfortunately, she was confirmed dead on arrival.

The late monarch’s chances of survival has been a concern since his abduction as he was reportedly on medication for age-related diseases apart from the maltreatment the criminals inflicted on him.
