JUST IN: Bandits release abducted Zamfara radio producer

Kidnapped Zamfara radion producer, Idris Magami, has regained freedom after seven days.

 

He was kidnapped by the bandits last Wednesday when he was travelling to his hometown after closing hours.

 

Magami, however, refused to disclose the amount collected from him as ransom.

 

He said, “The bandits were very kind to me throughout my stay in their camp.

 

“There was never a time I was maltreated but I have been seeing many abductees being subjected to all sorts of maltreatment.

 

“They used to give me food and also allowed me to observe my five daily prayers, a privilege denied to many of those they have abducted.

 

“I want to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to many media houses, particularly The PUNCH for their quick reportage of my abduction.

 

“This has greatly assisted in my quick release by the bandits.”

 

Magami also commended the people of the state, especially the teeming listeners of his popular phone-in Hausa programme called ‘Su duniya manya’ ( The world is full of surprises).
