A popular social media influencer based in Kaduna State, Abubakar Idris, popularly known as Dadiyata, who disappeared over six years ago, has been confirmed dead after a thorough investigation led by investigative public commentator and social critic, Damilola Adekunle.

Dadiyata went missing after being abducted by armed men at gunpoint from his residence in Barnawa, Kaduna State.

Many believed his disappearance was politically motivated due to his vocal criticism of prominent politicians and his for former presidential candidate Rabiu Kwankwaso.

In a shocking revelation, Adekunle announced on Wednesday on her Facebook page that her investigation had confirmed Dadiyata’s death.

“It is with a heavy heart that I announce that after thorough investigations, I can confirm that Idris Abubakar, popularly known as Dadiyata, is officially dead. #Dadiyata was killed,” she stated.

This confirmation comes after Adekunle launched a N10 million investigation fund on May 4, 2025, seeking fact-based information on Dadiyata’s disappearance.

“I am launching a N10 million fund to reward anyone that can give me a fact-based investigation into what happened to Abubakar IDRIS (aka Dadiyata). If you know what happened to him, dead or alive, please come to my DM,” she had posted.

Since his abduction on August 2, 2019, his family and ers have been left in the dark about his fate. Even Amnesty International Nigeria has been calling for answers, with the organisation questioning the Nigerian government’s handling of the case.

The Guardian recalls that his mother, who ed away in 2022 while he was still missing, had been seeking justice for her son.
Dadiyata’s disappearance had elicited widespread outrage and concern, with many attributing his abduction to his vocal criticism of government and politicians.

Peter Obi is smarter than we give him credit for.
Come 2027, he'll run with Datti-Ahmed.

Who killed Funsho Williams?
Where was he killed?
I also Toyin Adeniji,
PDP chieftain who was Shot dead in Agege, Lagos state by unknown gunmen

The midget has a lot of answers to provide, so many politically motivated killings and disappearances during his tenure.

Recall how the traditional ruler of Adara Kingdom was abducted and murdered on his way from a meeting with Elrufai, while the people were still mourning the killing of their king, Elrufai created 4 Emirates out of the Adara Chiefdom and made Fulanis the Emirs of 3 of them, the same old trick Dan Fodio used to weaken and balkanize the Hausas

What kind of conclusion is this, did you find his remains ...is there official and unofficial death...

Damn!

Many saw the writings on the wall but we pretended like all was well, now, it's obvious.

He can't stay clear cos he is desperate to be president at all cost. If he is paired with him as the coalition choice, he and his people will tell you how El rufai is the best choice. Some are even telling him to go back to pdp since the party said they will zone thier ticket to south. Party he called structure of criminality.Desperate people like that nusiance Kenneth okonkwo who deserted obi after he lost and went back to apc, thinking he will be appointed. Now he is now in labour back an start attacking those who APC. Desperate region.

Obi must run with Elrufai.
Must

At least, his new found romance with Elrufai will put some sense in his head.

APSHIT HAPPENED TO HIM





WEN WE KEEP LOSING OUR VIBRANT AND YOUNG PEOPLE, FOR ELDERS LIKE TINUBU AND BUHARI, THE FUTURE IS GRIM

Freedom of speech is not equal to freedom after speech

One of the numerous victims of el rufai. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

In fulfillment of Seun's new rule of 40 characters minimum. Congratulations!!!

Peter Obi’s partner, El-Rufai should be questioned about the disappearance and eventual death of Dadiyata.

i have said it severally, IF PETER OBI ACCEPT TO THE VP TO ANYBODY OR ACCEPT ELRUFAI AS VP, THAT IS THE END OF HIM EVER BEING PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA.

Personally, i will NOT CAMPAIGN FOR HIM - IN FACT I WILL EVEN CAMPAIGN AGAINST.

Lets be honest, with any of these two persons, he can not succeed with anything nor effect any change in the country.

HE CAN YOU STOP TERRORISM WHN THEIR OGA IS YOUR VP? IMPOSSICANT!

Funsho Williams was killed by PDP n seye ogunlewe was locked up for that.

Tinubu istration compensated Funsho Williams son by giving him appointment.


Hope u will rest now?

the greatest mistake obi will make is to add el rufai to any of his plans.
