Abducted Afenifere Youth Leader Regains Freedom
Abducted National President of the Afenifere Youth Council, Eniola Olajuni, has been released after 12 days in the kidnappers’ den.
The National Secretary of the Youths Council, Biodun Aderohunmu, confirmed his release to PUNCH correspondent in a short WhatsApp message on Saturday.
“He has been released”, the message read.
Olajuni was abducted on Monday, February 17, 2025, on his way to Abuja for a meeting.
The kidnappers had demanded N100m and two tricycles as ransom for his release.
Recall that on Wednesday, the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, ordered the deployment of the Intelligence Response Team to secure the safe release of the Afenifere Youth Leader after a video went viral where Olajuni, who was at gunpoint, pleaded for Nigerians to come to his aid and raise funds for his release.
