Sixteen days after she was abducted by unknown men, the wife of a medical doctor in Ondo State, Mrs Juliana Ogunleye, was, on Monday, released by her abductors.
Nigerian Tribune learnt that the 65 years old woman was eventually freed around 5.30 a.m on Monday.
It was gathered that the abductors called the family members early in the morning to go and pick the woman where she was dropped.
The woman was later picked up by her family members at about 5.40am on Ado-Ekiti road, where the kidnappers had dropped her.
Speaking with the Nigerian Tribune on phone over the development, one of the children of the woman, Ayo Ogunleye, said the kidnappers put a call to one of their uncles early in the morning.
According to him, the people said they should go and pick their mother since they had refused to pay the ransom demanded from the family.
He said: “They (abductors) just called us to go and pick our mother, the voice said since we have refused to pay the N50 million ransom. It shows that our mother is worthless and that we should go and pick her.”
