Four Years Later: Missing BUK Student Found in Kaduna State
A Bayero University, Kano (BUK) student, Shafiu Auwal Ibrahim, who went missing in 2021, has been found alive in Kaduna State, according to multiple reports circulating on social media.
Shafiu, a resident of Kano’s Janbulo area, disappeared four years ago, prompting a widespread search by his family, friends, and the university community.
Despite years of uncertainty, his family never gave up hope.
Family sources revealed that Shafiu was discovered living in a village in Kaduna under the care of an Islamic cleric, who reportedly took him in after finding him in a mentally unstable condition several years ago.
No further details have been provided regarding his current mental state.
After years of anxiety, the family expressed gratitude to God for Shafiu’s safe return. He has since reunited with his relatives and is reportedly in good health and stable condition.
The news has sparked relief and joy among the university community and social media users who have followed the case over the past four years.
