Nwapa described the government's position as insensitive and an attempt to downplay the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.
A human rights activist, Francis Nwapa, has berated the Katsina State government over its explanation of the death of retired Major General Rabe Abubakar while in the custody of kidnappers.
Nwapa described the government's position as insensitive and an attempt to downplay the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.
In a statement issued on Saturday, Nwapa faulted the Katsina State Governor, Dikko Umar Radda’s claims that late Abubakar died a "natural death" resulting from complications associated with diabetes and hypertension while being held captive by terrorists.
According to the activist, the central issue was not the medical condition of the deceased but the fact that he was abducted, held against his will and died in terrorists’ captivity without being rescued by security agencies.
