The State's police spokesperson SP Celestina Kalu, who confirmed their release, said the victims were freed as a result of pressure on the abductors by security operatives.

Kalu stated that the victims were released at about 5:30pm when security operatives combing the bushes were already closing-in on the bandits’ hideout.
