BREAKING: General Rabe’s Son Breaks Silence, Reveals What Happened Before Father’s Body Was Recovered [VIDEO]

A son of late Major General Rabe Abubakar (rtd), Isyaka Rabe, has broken his silence regarding the condition of his late father while in captivity and the mystery surrounding how the family received his remains.

He made the clarification while speaking in an exclusive interview with Deutsche Welle (DW).

Isyaka debunked the narrative put forward by authorities, stating that his father had no history of diabetes or high blood pressure, contrary to the claims publicly attributed to the Katsina State Government.

When questioned about the circumstances under which the family recovered the late general’s body, Isyaka revealed that the family was completely kept in the dark by official channels.

“When I announced the time for my father’s funeral prayer, many people began asking how the body was recovered. I told them I did not know and that they should direct such questions to the government,” he stated.

He added that while only God knows the actual cause of his father’s death, reports suggesting he died from standard health complications are inaccurate, pointing out that many believe the retired general was killed by a venomous animal.

“Some people believed the late General might have died from a snake bite, based on the last video released by the kidnappers,” he said.

He further dismissed rumours about his mother’s return by confirming that she still remains in the forest.

“Take it from me, our mother is still in captivity. She has not been released,” Isyaka clarified.

The late general and his wife were abducted by bandits on May 30, 2026, along the Marabar Musawa–Kafinsoli Road in the Matazu Local Government Area of Katsina State, with the officer subsequently dying in custody.

Following the incident, the Katsina State Government announced that he passed away from complications related to diabetes and hypertension.
