SP Kennedy Idirisu, the command`s spokesman, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Lafia that the politician was released on Wednesday night at the state border with Plateau state.
“The victim was found at a military check around Bakin-Kogi, the boundary between Nasarawa and Plateau state.
