The nine surveyors who were abducted in Ilu-Abo community in Akure North LGA of Ondo State have regained their freedom.

The victims were freed by their abductors after the payment of N20 million ransom.

The development was confirmed by Ajibade Owolanke, brother to the Ejemikin of Akure, High Chief Oluwole Omotayo.


According to Owolanke, the surveyors were freed on Tuesday night after the kidnappers confirmed the receipt of the payment.

Recall that the surveyors were abducted while on site at Ilu-Abo, after which their abductors demanded N100 million for their release but it was later reduced to N50 million after a series of pleas, but the families of the victims were able to raise N20 million.

Meanwhile, women in Akure, the state capital, on Tuesday protested over the incessant kidnappings and killings in the state as they hit the streets to demand an immediate end to the situation.
