This is the heartbreaking story of 13 year-old Girl, Hasana Bulus, from Kaduna State.

On April 20 2026, the minor was abducted alongside others from her home in Awon village,   Kachia Local Government Area, Kaduna. For seven months, they were held captive in very harsh . 

The heartless bandits  demanded, for their release, the sum of  N300m and 23 motorcycles.

They rejected an offer of seven million Naira, and threatened to kill them ir starve them until the ransom is paid. They kept to their words, and a number of them, including children, died in captivity.

However, on November 2, Hasana and those who survived the ordeal were released. 24 hours later, she succumbed to death no thanks to her ordeal.

Her death was made public by accomplished Journalist, Reuben Buhari.

According to Buhari, Hasana endured pain and horrors in captivity.

Jethro Daniel, a community leader submitted:

“This is 13-year-old Hasana Bulus. On 20th April, she was kidnapped from her home in Awon village alongside others and taken into the bush. For seven long months, this little girl was held captive in the bush, enduring pain and horrors no 13-year-old should ever have to see, let alone live through.

“She was finally freed on 2nd November and taken to a hospital in Kachia. On 3rd November, just a day after tasting freedom, she died. May her gentle soul rest in peace.”
