The abducted Chairman of the All Progressives Congress in Ward 9, Orhionmwon Local Government of Edo State, Godwin Aigbogun, has regained his freedom.
Aigbogun was said to have escaped from kidnappers’s den after he was abducted on his way back to his village from his farm in Ologbo-nugu on Monday evening.
The kidnappers, suspected to be Fulani herdsmen, were said to have demanded N5 million ransom from his family.
The state Publicity Secretary, Barrister Peter Uwadiae, confirmed his escape on Wednesday morning and said that he has since rejoined his family.
“I can confirm to you that he has escaped from the kidnappers’ den. I don’t know how he did it but I must commend him for his bravery. The APC family in the state is happy about this. He is now with the family,” PUNCH quoted him as saying.
