The police have arrested two suspects in connection to the abduction of Musa Umar, father-in-law of President Muhammadu Buhari’s aide de camp (ADC).

The suspects were paraded on Tuesday.

Umar, the district head of Daura, Buhari’s hometown in Katsina state, who was kidnapped on May 1, was rescued in Kano, in the early hours of July 2.

He was said to have regained freedom after a combined team of security operatives engaged in a serious gun battle with his captors who were “holed up in a secluded house along Madobi road in Samagu quarters close to Sani Abacha Youth Center, Kano”.
