His two mobile phones were missing,\u201d Lawan, 67, said.<\/p>\n<p>Dan Shagamu, with a combined following of hundreds of thousands on Facebook and TikTok, was known for his aggressive videos in the Hausa language critical of government on local political and social issues.<\/p>\n<p>It was not clear whether his death was linked to his political views, but Lawan said they suspected foul play.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis friend said he had a disagreement with some people who threatened to kill him,\u201d Lawan said, calling for investigation and prosecution of the killers.<\/p>\n<p>Dan Shagamu was reporter for a state-funded local radio station before he resigned and became active on social media, building a huge fan base.<\/p>\n<p>Amnesty International condemned his killing saying in a statement that he was \u201cbrutally slaughtered after being overpowered by his killers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dan Shagamu\u2019s killing came after election campaigning commenced last month.<\/p>\n<p>Nigerian elections are usually tainted with violence, with politicians recruiting thugs to intimidate opponents and silence dissenting political views.<\/p>\n<p>The paid thugs cause chaos during rallies and at election booths to help their candidates have an edge over opponents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the elections approach, we continue to receive disturbing reports of politically
