Well, rip to the poor driver

money exchanged hands ,he's free and for those that can't afford still in captivity. security agency won't say a word

Kyari the police officer must be involved...Just wait for full details later.

No ransom was paid for their release



Theriously?

Poor driver.
He died and soon, very soon no one will rememner he ever existed only for his poor family

Okay but...

He said that his boss and daughter were released at about 1:30pm, and that they were hale and healthy.

Thanking God for their lives.

He claimed no ransom was paid for his release. 

Hmmmm, we don hear......

Hit like if you think something is fishy here...less than 24hrs, no ransom! Akuko mike

What of the driver that lost his life?

Poor driver.

Drive is gone, just like that

"He claimed no ransom was paid for his release"..

These terrorist kidnappers have been there for long. Why have they not been routed

The kidnappers have hit the jackpot with this one! Money talks. This instant payment from one BIG catch is exactly why they won't stop kidnapping anytime soon. I'm sad for Nigeria. Mark my words- They'll get a governor or senator in the near future.

Why was the driver shot dead if they were going to release them without ransom?

Imagine, the poor driver was shot dead while trying to put bread on table for his family. May his soul rip.

I thought the IGP said that Abuja kaduna highway is now safe and free of kidnappers??
And after these Abokis will come and look for who to point fingers at... Everyday humans are kidnapped along that cursed highway and these abokis will still be claiming saints.

I was in a kidnapper before in Talata Mafara...

Say that to the foreigners

I can bet with my life, huge amount of money was paid for their release but they will not disclose it for security reason

That road is not safe at all. I was on that road last week.

No ransom paid? That's one big lie right there. I feel for the dead driver and his family.

his a rich man so he pay wat if his poor. so sad dere is a naija for de rich and poor

My prayer!

Oh God, let kidnappers kidnap on a single day in Nigeria the IGs daughter, the Governors son and a Senators Wife.

Then watch how the kidnapping venture would be completely and permanently stamped out of Nigeria within a one week period!

God help is all

Somewhere in Kaduna Westeros...

Taah! Shataap there! You think they will go to that extent, commit murder and not collect ransom

How many millions did it cost the govt
Let me give you the official statement that will soon be released so that you won't bother opening it.
'He was released by a team of detectives led by Abba Kyari after a gun duel that lasted for one hour, the kidnappers escaped with gunshot injuries and a manhunt is underway to arrest them'

Happy for his him and his family and condolences to the family of his driver

This only goes to confirm suspicions that the police force are actively involved and benefitting from this carnage. The heat on their superiors must have been intense and they simply cut the top government official loose to avoid further scrutiny

NO RANSOME? So they just killed the driver for nothing?,

Money don change hands na
