Unknown Gunmen have abducted a nursing mother identified as Salimot Ajibola along Rounder area of Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
She was kidnapped on Thursday evening when she was in a car with her husband.
The couple were about driving into their house when the kidnappers attacked them and made away with the wife.
It was gathered that the husband had passed out after the assailants hit him on the head during the attack.
He regained consciousness to discover that the abductors had made away with his wife, leaving behind their maid and the baby.
“Few hours after her abduction, the kidnappers called the family to demand N25million ransom for her release.
“As negotiations continued, they reduced the ransom to N15million. The family pleaded and they later settled for N3million.
“The N3million was taken to a location described by the kidnappers. After they got the money, Salmot was released on Saturday night.
Contacted, the Ogun State police spokesman, Abimbola Oyeyemi, confirmed the incident.
He, however, said the police were not aware of any ransom paid to effect the release of the abducted woman.
“I am not aware of any ransom paid. But I know she has been released. Whenever people want to pay this money (to the kidnappers), they won’t inform the police. So, we are not aware of any ransom paid,” Oyeyemi said on Sunday night.
