Good news.
"he was freed at about 8am this morning by his kidnappers in Benin".
And the police,what role did they play in his release?
Proper security measures have to be put in place,who knows who their next target might be.

Thank God he is out, safe and unharmed.

I suggest he charges any media house that demands an interview with him describing his experience.That's what they do in developed countries. At least that way he can get back some of the money that was paid for his release.#toughworld# welcome back Sir.

Thank God he's finally release no matter the amount they paid it doesn't worth the life of a man. God will surely catch those wicked souls someday.

The kidnapping of ozekhome is part of the redistribution of the proceeds of corruption. He defends criminals with zeal/passion in exchange for part of their loots. e.g Lawan, Ibori

This is clearly the handiwork of APC who want to continually heat up the country with an impression of Insecurity. PDP represents stability and progress while APC shows so much inconsistency and lack of a defined vision. Our SAN please note.

Thank God for your life,,but what happens to the family of the security personnel that died while trying to save your life during the fracas,,hope you have plans to put something on ground to take care of the bereaved family now that you have paid for your own ransome!

Rosie Said....Am glad that Mr Ozekhome is free and safe.I think its about time kidnapped victims form a pressure group and demand an end to this epidemic.Today its Ozekhome,tomorrow it will be somebody else,we as a society must stand up and demand for change.These kidnappers are not spirits,they are our relatives and they live among us.Finding them out is not rocket science..... just saying.

I am a victim too. It is indeed a harrowing ordeal. Kept in solitude without knowing if you will be freed or whether the igbo induced boys will decide to kill you at any minute.Staring death in the face.I am stronger for it and have overcome because the moment I was released I went to confession(Catholic tings)and pleaded to God to have mercy on them because I forgave them.I have peace.How I for do??Afterall the planners could even be from my household??Its being two years and I am moving on.I hardly remember it and people say I am brave(woman tings)I smile.I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.Welcome back Sir.Now you will leave that your busy schedule and give yourself at least 3 months compulsory vacation.Also plan a second honeymoon with your wife. No be only you spend sleepless nights o. Lol
