Abducted Edo PDP chairman regains freedom

The abducted chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party in Edo State, Tony Aziegbemi, has been released by his abductors.

Aziegbemi was said to have arrived at his residence around 3 a.m. on Tuesday after spending about 11 days in captivity.

The news of his release was broken by Senator Odion Ugbesia around 6.17 a.m., but it could not be confirmed whether ransom was paid or not before he was released.

Gunmen kidnapped Aziegbemi close to his house on March 15 at about 11 p.m. on Idaro Street, off Country Home Road, Benin, Edo State.
