Former official of the State Security Service (SSS), and a senior security specialist Mike Ejiofor, who was abducted on Sunday, has been released.

According to Ceoafrica, Mike Ejiofor was released last night by his Fulani abductors, but it remained sketchy if ransom was paid for his release.

Ejiofor is the chairman of Apex Safety and Security Consultants in Abuja, a security outfit he took over since he retired from the SSS.

Ejiofor, who served as a state director with the service, was abducted on Sunday, in Kogi state, according to an online medium which also reports that some of Ejiofor’s friends confirmed the incident and said there are efforts to rescue him.

One of Ejiofor’s friends was quoted as saying: “He was kidnapped truly. But we are making frantic efforts to secure his safe release without further hassles”.

“I will get back to you if we have further updates”.
