One of the four landlords kidnapped by gunmen in the Isheri North area of Lagos State has escaped from his captors.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the victim, who arrived at home on Tuesday, however, refused to discuss his ordeal with anyone.

Our correspondent had reported that the masked gunmen emerged from the waterways while the victims were jogging around 8am on Saturday.

The assailants were said to have shot into the air before taking away the four men in a speedboat.

A source told our correspondent that one of the men escaped on Tuesday.

He said, “He escaped from their midst because no ransom was paid. “He is scared and has kept to himself. The police have maintained visible presence in the community, but it is not certain they know where the kidnappers are.”

Another member of the community said some money was paid, adding that the victim arrived at the estate around 5am in a boat.

He said, “A large amount of money was paid by his family for his release; he didn’t escape. He was released at about 5am.”

When contacted, the Zonal Police Public Relations Officer, SP Muyiwa Adejobi, promised to call back, but he had yet to do so as of press time.
