The kidnappers of two Osun farmers and three other relatives have released the two farmers and a driver.

The kidnappers held captive two farmers while returning from their farm in Ileogbo, Osun state, last week Wednesday, and also held captive three people who went to deliver an N6 million ransom demanded in the border town between Kwara and Kogi states on Monday, demanding an additional N24 million.

However, later in the evening on Tuesday, it was gathered that the driver that drove the team to Kwara state and the two farmers, Samuel Oladotun and Fashola Tobiloba were released from where they were held captive.

A family source who pleaded anonymity disclosed that the three individuals were released from different places and are presently in Iwo.

Osun police spokesperson, Yemisi Opalola confirmed that three victims have been released from the kidnappers’ den.
