Mr. Oyedokun Oyeniyi, the owner of Agbo Hotel in Ogbomoso in Oyo State, his wife, Busayo Oyedokun, and seven others including their children that were kidnapped by unknown gunmen, have regained their freedom.
It would be recalled that the kidnappers visited the hotel in Ogbomoso at about 10 p.m. on Saturday night, April 24, pretending to be lodgers and shot sporadically into the air before kidnapping the victims.
The kidnappers had demanded N32 million ransom for the release of the abductees.
DSP Adewale Osifeso, the spokesperson of the state police command, who confirmed their release said in a statement,
“Yes, they have been released.”
DSP Osifeso did not, however, disclose whether ransom was paid before the release of the victim.
