The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) says its operatives have rescued the wife of Hakeem Odumosu, a retired assistant inspector-general of police (AIG).
On January 16, the victim was whisked away by four masked men while entering her home in Arepo, Obafemi Owode LGA of Ogun state.
The abductors reportedly took the former AIG’s wife through a swampy area to an unknown destination after dragging her out of her sport utility vehicle (SUV).
In the wake of the abduction, the police command in Ogun said it had deployed officers to investigate the incident.
