It is unclear if any money was paid for his release
The Emir of Kajuru, Alhassan Adamu, has regained his freedom, after being abducted on Sunday morning.
The monarch was released at about 5pm on Monday, after spending a night in the custody of bandits.
Although the abductors had demanded a 200-million-ransom, it is unclear if any money was paid for his release.
A top official of the Kajuru council area as well as the spokesman of the Kajuru Emirate council, Dahiru Abubakar confirmed the release of the 85-year-old traditional ruler.
However, 13 other members of his family, who were kidnapped with him, are still in captivity.
