Kidnappers have released the two abducted wives of a Zungeru title Chief, Madakin Zungeru, but are still keeping the Traditional Titleholder after the ransom of five million Naira was paid.
A source close to the family confirmed that the two wives are currently receiving medical attention. The source also added that the bandits are yet to release the husband, the Madakin Zungeru.

The three people were abducted from their home in Zungeru in the Wushishi Local Government Area of Niger State. The two wives had spent more than two weeks in the bandits’ enclaves, before their release.
Efforts to reach the Police Public Relations Officer in Niger State, Deputy Superintendent of Police Wasiu Abiodun, to react on the development were not successful.
