Kidnapped caretaker chairman of Iganna local council development area of Oyo State, Comrade Jacob Olayiwola Adeleke, and his driver have regained freedom.
Their freedom came barely 6 days after they were abducted on their way to Ibadan.
A council boss, who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed their release.
It would be recalled that the caretaker chairman was kidnapped Sunday night alongside his driver along Okeho-Ado Awaye on their way to Ibadan for a meeting scheduled with Governor Seyi Makinde on Monday.
Men of the Vigilante Group of Nigeria, VGN, from the area and neighboring local government areas and LCDAs were deployed to comb forests and bushes in the area.
Though details of their release were still sketchy as at press time, FreshPage recalled that the abductors had reached out to families of the victims, demanding N200 million ransom.
