Frontline industrialist Jimoh Ibrahim yesterday spoke on how his mother was rescued from kidnappers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Madam Omofenwa Jimoh, 69, was kidnapped at gun point at her son\u2019s home in Igbotako, Ondo State last week.<\/span><\/p>\n

She was rescued in Sapele, Delta State.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a statement yesterday, the industrialist said: \u201cA young man from Ondo State provided the information that led to the arrest of two of the kidnappers and mothers of the two others on the run, who are now with the police.\u2019\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

Ibrahim said the kidnappers first contacted him through a text message: \u201cYOUR MAMA\u201d last Wednesday at about 4 pm.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIt was on Thursday they asked for N370million. I asked them \u201chow will they carry the money\u201d. They cut the phone. On Friday, they came forward with somedemand for dollars.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThey asked us to bring it to Sagamu. When we got there, they said we should move to Okada Junction at Benin. At the place, I came out of my car so they could see me. From Okada Junction, they asked us to go to Sapele and from there to Ugbelli Junction.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThey released mama at about 11:30 pm on Sunday. They gave my phone number to her and asked her to give it to anyone that could call me. We got the call at about 11:48 am on Monday morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ibrahim refused to disclose the amount he paid as ransom. He said mother was \u2018priceless.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

He said a lot of scientific and physical risks went into the rescue of his mum.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On whether the kidnap was politically motivated, Ibrahim said he would wait for the police report.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019The Special Adviser t to the President on Niger Delta left his office in Abuja for Delta in search of mama in the hand of kidnappers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He said his mother would be relocated to Lagos.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to work on her to agree to take a flight by air and that Lagos is more secure than Ondo State, a change is necessary this time by persuasion,\u201d Ibrahim said.<\/span><\/p>\n
