Senator Iyabo Anisulowo,
who was kidnapped last Wednesday while returning from her farm at Sanwojo in
Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State, has been rescued by the men of
the Ogun State police command.
The
Punch report continues:
The
former senator, who had spent a week at the kidnappers’ den, was reported to
have been rescued at Gbegbinlayo village on Tuesday in Abeokuta North Local
Government Area of the state around 7pm on Tuesday.
The
state Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, who confirmed this, added
that the former Minister of State for Education, was rescued unhurt while no
ransom was paid.
He
said two suspects had been arrested, including the kingpin of the gang that
kidnapped Anisulowo.
He
said, “It is true we have rescued Senator Iyabo Anisulowo alive from the
kidnappers’ den at Gbegbinlayo village in the Abeokuta North LGA.
“The
police tracked the kidnappers through both land and aerial patrols. The kingpin
and one other suspect have been arrested. We tracked the kingpin to Lagos,
where he was arrested. He was trying to leave the country. Actually, he was
trying to fly to Dubai when our men arrested him.
“Investigations are on and
we believe more suspects will still be arrested.”
