Abducted Afenifere Youth Leader Regains Freedom

The National President of the Afenifere Youth Council, Eniola Olajuni, has regained freedom after spending 12 days in captivity.

The National Secretary of the Youth Council, Biodun Aderohunmu, confirmed his release in a brief WhatsApp message to our correspondent on Saturday.

“He has been released,” the message read.

Olajuni was abducted on Monday, February 17, 2025, while traveling to Abuja for a meeting.

His captors had initially demanded a ransom of ₦100 million and two tricycles for his release.

On Wednesday, the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, ordered the Intelligence Response Team to intervene following the circulation of a viral video showing Olajuni at gunpoint, pleading for Nigerians to help raise funds for his release.
