One of the sons of the late Major General Rabe Abubakar (retd), Isyaka Rabe, has said his father had no history of diabetes or high blood pressure, contrary to claims attributed to the Katsina State government.
In an interview with Deutsche Welle (DW), Isyaka said reports suggesting that his father died as a result of diabetes were inaccurate.
He said some people believed the late General might have died from a snake bite, based on the last video released by the kidnappers.
However, he said only God knows the actual cause of his father’s death.
