Bishop of Jebba Anglican Diocese Rt. Rev. Aderogba Adeyinka and his wife and driver, who were abducted on Sunday night, have regained freedom.
The cleric, his wife and driver were taken captive after their vehicle broke down at an isolated spot on the new Oyo/Ogbomoso Expressway while travelling from Yewa, Ogun State to Jebba, Kwara State.
Oyo police spokesman Adewale Osifeso confirmed the release of the victims in a statement on Tuesday.
Osifeso said that the victims were rescued unhurt by police personnel around 6:20pm on Tuesday.
According to him, the massive deployment of police personnel for the operation to rescue the victims and the domination of the entire area by the police tactical teams put pressure on the abductors to free the victims.
Osifeso said that the victims have been reunited with their family while investigation is still ongoing to arrest the suspects and bring them to justice.
