The abducted cameraman attached to Ebonyi State Government House in Abakaliki, Uchenna Nwube, has regained freedom after three days in captivity
Recalls that Uchenna Nwube was kidnapped on June 8 Wednesday at about 7 p.m. along the Okigwe-Aba-Enugu Highway in Abia State.
while returning to Abakaliki from Aba
And the kidnappers were demanding N50 million as ransom,
The victim, it was gathered, had made a distress call to his colleague, to confirm his abduction, after he was instructed to do so by his captors.
A friend of his, who pleaded anonymity, told our correspondent that Mr Nwube was released in the wee hours of Saturday by his captors alongside his friend’s mother-in-law and no ransom was paid.
"Finally, Uchenna has been released from the kidnappers' net, right now he is at his resident in Abakiliki . He was also released alongside with the woman he was carrying. The miracle behind this incident is that no fund (ransom) was paid. They were released because their phone (kidnappers) went off and at that moment of not reaching or able to be reached, felt or feared that they were under threat. So they allow them to go in search of another prey. To God be the Glory"
