In Adamawa, Hausa Artiste Disappears After Singing About Corrupt APC Politician

Ado Daukaka, a popular local Hausa singer in Adamawa State, has been abducted in mysterious circumstances, few hours after releasing a song against corruption and incompetence.

One of the wives of the popular singer said some strangers came and asked after him Saturday morning after he had gone to the mosque for the early morning prayer, adding “we told them Daukaka left for the mosque. From then till now nobody knows his whereabouts.”

“We search police stations for him to no avail,” said one of the wives, who does not want to be named in print.

Already, people are associating his disappearance with his latest song entitled ‘Gyara Kayanka,’ where he said politicians elected on the platform of the ruling party, APC were just deceiving people.

“The way and manner things are happening in the state will not augur well for anybody. They just want to intimidate those that are criticising the charade being played in the state,” another said.

Also reacting, the state chairman of Adamawa Concern Citizen, a pressure group in the state, Hussaini Gambo Bello, condemned in totality the abduction of the famous singer. The state Police Command confirmed the incident.
