Chinese Expatriate Kidnapped in Edo Regains Freedom After Three Months

A Chinese expatriate identified as Mr. Wang was abducted by gunmen at the BUA Cement plant in Okpella, Edo State, and was held captive for over three months.

The victim was rescued in Kabba, Kogi State, following a joint operation by the Edo and Kogi State Police Commands, NSCDC, and local vigilante groups. The authorities did not disclose if a ransom was paid for his release.

Mr. Wang has since left Nigeria and returned to China.
