The kidnapped 13-year old daughter of Pastor Daniel Umaru has been freed after huge sum of undisclosed amount was paid as ransom, TG NEWS learnt.
Meanwhile the remains of her two brothers who were shot dead on the ill-fated night have been buried by agonizing and wailing family members and friends on Saturday.
The remains of the siblings were buried side-by-side at the Church cemetery in Kwarhi, near Mubi.
On July 7, 2022, TG NEWS reported that gunmen have shot a pastor, gunned down his two sons and kidnapped his 13-year-old daughter in Adamawa State.
The sons died while the pastor is fighting to survive in the hospital.
TG NEWS learnt that ferocious gunmen stormed the residence of Reverend Daniel Umaru of the ‘Eklesiya Yan’uwa A Nigeria’ (EYN); also known as Church of the Brethren, at Njairi in the Hong Local Government Area and carried out the dastardly act.
A family source told TG NEWS Sunday morning that the kidnapped minor was set free by her abductors after collecting huge amount of money as ransom.
“We paid money, huge amount of course, before they released her to us on Saturday evening, just after her two brothers were laid to rest at the EYN Church headquarters in Kwarhi.
“As of now, both her parents are fighting for their lives at the Modibbo Adama University Teaching Hospital, Yola, due to gunshot injury and trauma”, the family member said.
