Can we all try and remember just one kidnap case that was resolved in just about three days during Jonathan's regime? I am doing a research on that. I remember Chimamanda Ngozi's father was kidnapped, Ngozi Okonjo-Iwealla's father or mother or both were kidnapped, Mikel Obis's father too was kidnapped. How long did it take to get them released?
