His abductors demanded N100 million and two tricycles as ransom for his release.

Last week a video of him in the kidnappers’ den went viral on the Internet. In the video showing him at gun point, he pleaded with members of the public to come to his aid and help with payment of his ransom.

On Wednesday, the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, ordered the deployment of the Intelligence Response Team, IRT, to secure Olajuni’s safe release.
