Two daughters of a Director of Sports in the Old Western State and proprietor of Subuola Nursery and Primary School in Ibadan, Chief Emiola Adesina have regained their freedom.
The duo of Omobola Adepoju and Abiola Olukotun who are daughters of Chief Emiola were kidnapped along the Ife-Ibadan Expressway in Ibadan, the Oyo state capital on Monday.
A former Permanent Secretary in the Federal Ministry of Communication, Professor Tunji Olaopa, broke the news on Tuesday.
Olaopa, who is a family friend of the kidnapped victims said that the abductors demanded the sum of N100m as ransom.
According to Dailypost, the duo were released on Wednesday, though it was not clear if the ransom was paid before they were released and the amount paid to the kidnappers.
Olaopa in a short message confirmed the release of the duo.
He said, “I want to thank everyone on this platform for the solidarity you showed on the abduction of Mrs Bola Adepoju her sister as posted by Professor Olaopa. And to inform you that they have both been released today. Thank you all.”
