Emir of Kajuru breaks down in tears after release

Emir of Kajuru, Alhaji Alhassan Adamu, broke down in tears shortly after he was released.

While addressing his subjects, the monarch got overwhelmed by emotions.

• Anambra gov’ship: APC risks another Zamfara experience

He started saying, “People of Kajuru…” but he could hardly complete his thought before he got emotional.

He covered his face with both hands to contain his emotions in a 21-second clip seen by Daily Trust.

Bandits had abducted him from his private residence in the early hours of Sunday.

They had contacted the family to demand a ransom of N200 million on Monday but hours after this, the monarch marched back into his kingdom in Kaduna state.

Hid children, grandchildren, and some title holders of the emirate are still being held.
