In a post on X on Saturday, Shehu Sani, a former lawmaker who served as the National Assembly representative for the Kaduna Central Senatorial District from 2015 to 2019, revealed that Mallam Sufyan had died on Friday night after thwarting a kidnapping attempt by bandits who had also kidnapped two women during the incident.
When Mallam Idris Abu Sufyan, Principal of GSS Kuriga in Chikun LG, Kaduna State, attempted to elude kidnapping, he was slain by bandits.In the process, they were successful in kidnapping two women.I hope his soul is at peace. Ameen,” the message said.
Sufyan’s coworkers, Aminu Auwal, confirmed the occurrence and said in a Facebook post that Sufyan was a noble and dedicated person who stayed in the village in spite of frequent bandit attacks.
“I regret to notify you that Maliris Abu Suffyan, our esteemed colleague and principal of GSS Kuriga (SNR), was assassinated by bandits who also abducted his wife and their infant son. May the All-Powerful Allah pardon his transgressions and bestow upon him Aljannatul firdausi. Amen,” he wrote.
You had the option to immediately depart Kuriga Village, Allah sarki Abusufyan Idrees, but you opted to remain with your people. In addition to teaching village kids football, he served as the village’s GSS principal while he was alive.
He had the option to leave the town, but he decided to stay despite the tense attacks by armed bandits in his community. He spent the rest of his life working to improve the world for young people and to establish his small community as a global leader. However, he paid a price for his actions when the bandits broke into his home, shot him dead, and took his wife. RIP, Abusufyan,” commented Manajer Deeni, a different colleague.
