Tragic Confirmation: Retired Maj. Gen. Rabe Abubakar Dies in Captivity
Sources have confirmed that Retired Major General Rabe Abubakar, former Director of Defence Information and military spokesman, has died while in the captivity of armed bandits.
The Katsina State Government and Defence Headquarters officially announced his passing today. According to statements, the retired senior officer succumbed to complications arising from diabetes and hypertension during his time in captivity, despite ongoing rescue efforts by security agencies.
Maj. Gen. Abubakar and his wife were abducted on May 30 while traveling in Katsina State. His wife remains in captivity.
This is a profound loss for his family, the Nigerian military, and the nation. May his soul rest in peace, and may justice be served against those responsible.
