Olubunmi Oke, the female journalist with NTA Akure who was kidnapped on
Thursday 21 as she returned home from work, has been released. Bunmi
regained her freedom today Sunday March 24th.
“I confirm that she has been released. I spoke with her early this
morning shortly after she was set free by her abductors. She was set
free and abandoned in a bush near Ondo town, about 30
kilometres (19 miles) from Akure from where she boarded a lorry home.
She is hale and hearty and happy to be back home." Rotimi
Obamuwagun, vice president of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, told
AFP.
Her abductors had asked for N8million but is is unclear if any ransom
was paid before she was freed
