According to him, the gunmen fired a series of shots before capturing the APC chieftain and fleeing the scene.

Reports emerging on Thursday morning revealed, however, that Omotosho has been freed.

According to Vanguard, relations of the abducted APC chieftain confirmed his release on Thursday morning (today), but kept mum on whether some money was paid for his release.

Also, the security agents in the state are yet to issue any official statement to confirm the news of his release.
