Ibrahim Ma,aji, the Special Adviser to Zamfara State Governor, Bello Matawalle on political affairs, has been abducted by gunmen suspected to be bandits.

It was learnt that Ma,aji was abducted on Saturday in his house in Mareri area in Gusau town.

The victim’s family said that the bandits were yet to reach out to them.

Last Saturday, Governor Matawalle of the All Progressives Congress (APC) lost his reelection bid to Lawal Dare of the Peoples Democratic Party which means he would hand over by May 29.

“The bandits are yet to call any of the family members to demand for a ransom.

“We have been calling his phone number and it was ringing but nobody answers,” a source told PUNCH.
