Anambra State Commissioner for Youth Development, Patrick Mba, and his wife have been freed by their abductors after a day in captivity. The couple was kidnapped on Friday while traveling to Abuja for a wedding, but they regained their freedom on Saturday, according to a government source who requested anonymity.
Their release was confirmed late Saturday, with a state government statement expected soon. Tragically, one of the commissioner’s aides was killed during the incident.
The state government has yet to issue an official statement regarding the matter.
