Chairman of the All Progressives Congress in Ward 9, Orhionmwon Local Government of Edo State, Mr Godwin Aigbogun, has escaped from his abductors’ den.
The kidnappers, suspected to be herdsmen, were said to have demanded N5 million ransom from his family after Aigbogun was abducted on his way back to his village from his farm in Ologbo-nugu on Monday evening.
The APC State Publicity Secretary, Barrister Peter Uwadiae who confirmed his escape to newsmen on Wednesday morning said the APC ward Chairman had 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. It is miraculous but I must commend him for his bravery.
The APC family in the state is happy about this. He is now with his family,” he added.
