After spending dozens of several days in captivity since when he was
whisked away by kidnappers, a kinsman of Goodluck Jonathan has regained
freedom.
The 72-year-old Chief Inegite Jonathan, uncle and foster father to
former President Goodluck Jonathan abducted by gunmen on Feb. 17 has

evening, said that details of the release were not yet available.
“The victim has been released and reunited with his family but I am yet to get the details,” Butswat said.
