Recall that in a video which recently went viral, the 74-year-old paramount ruler, who has been in captivity for 22 days, was seen in a blood-stained white cloth, with his hands tied behind his back.

The monarch spoke directly to the camera as he appealed to the public and the government to save his life.

The lawmaker representing Sabon Birni at the State House of Assembly, Aminu Boza, confirmed the authenticity of the video, stating that the person depicted is indeed the District Head, Bawa.
