An Abuja-based juju band kidnapped along the Lokoja highway have been released, after days in captivity.
Recall that singer, Adeyinka Adeboye, in a social media post on Monday, said the band leader was abducted alongside his crew, on their way back from a show in Kogi State.
He disclosed that the kidnappers requested a N10 million ransom for each member of the band.
He wrote; “This is so scary. God have mercy. @omobadejumbobeats and his band men were kidnapped on their way to Kogi from Abuja for a performance yesterday, please we need help as the kidnappers are demanding a N10 million ransom on each member.”
On Thursday, things took a positive turn, after popular Christian singer, Adegbodu Taiwo shared a video of the band being ushered out of a white bus.
He wrote: “To God alone be the glory, Omoba de Jumbo beats and his crew are back to Abuja safely. No more sorrow, IJN @omobadejumbobeats.”
