The gunmen abducted the 15 farmers near Mgbuji town while they were going to their farms.

The spokesman of Mgbuji Community, Chijioke Ogbodo, confirmed their release on Tuesday, August 2.

Speaking on the constant attack on the community by gunmen, Ogbodo said that their abductors demanded N30 million but what the families were able to contribute was N2 million.
