The 19 year old daughter of APC councillorship candidate in Odi Olowo Local council development area of Lagos state, Bode Adeosun, Bukola, who was kidnapped at the Illupeju area of Lagos state on Tuesday June 20th, has regained her freedom.

Three days after she was kidnapped, her unconscious body was dumped at Damegoro Street in Mushin in the early hours of today June 23rd. According to family sources, she was blindfolded and her hands and legs were tied with a rope.

It is alleged that one of the conditions for her release was for her father to write a letter to the chairman of the Lagos State Independent Electoral Commission (LASIEC), informing him of his withdrawal from the race for the position of a councillor in Odi Olowo Local government Area.

Bukola is currently receiving medical care at an undisclosed hospital
