Police operatives in Ebonyi State division rescued four kidnapped victims in Oshiagu Amia-Ngbo, Ngbo Community in Ohaukwu local government area of the state.
One of the victims is the village head.
The spokesperson of the state police command, Loveth Odah, told journalists in Abakaliki on Friday that the victims were rescued by the police in collaboration with members of the local vigilance team.
She said: some unknown persons kidnapped the victims on Thursday in the community, but they have been rescued by the Nigerian Police Force in the state.
I use this opportunity to advise members of the public to imbibe the spirit of giving information on crimes to the police as soon as they happen.
Imagine, a village head was kidnapped with three others since 2:00 p.m. on Thursday and nobody came to report the incident to the police.
