Touching Story Of How Herdsmen Rescued Nigerian Family From Kidnappers Den In Thick Forest
A Nigerian, simply identified as Adenrele, with the Twitter handle @blastedup, has narrated his ordeal in the hands of some suspected kidnappers on his way to his village in Ondo state.
Kidnapping has been on the rise in different part of the country inn recent times.
It was gathered that many reported cases of kidnap has been linked with the herdsmen as the perpetrators.
Adenrele’s story is, however, different as, according to him, he and other involved family members were rescued by a group of herdsmen, after being kidnapped and tied up by some ‘hefty’ men.
This personally happened two days ago along Owo-Ifon express way in Ondo state, we headed for this journey as early as 7am, on getting to Ipele junction of that same axis after Elegbeka(for those conversant with that route) at a pothole a group of hefty men numbering about 4

Spot, those hefty men already threw that wood so we won't be able to go past it. They came out, pointed heavy guns at us, left our car at that spot, these men didn't look like herdsmen, within me, I began to wonder if that would certainly be the end, a whole lot of thoughts ran

We got to a stream, they stopped and one of them said he was pressed he was allowed to go defecate, we were left with 3 men. After walking that long, we were exhausted, we sat down with our hands tied to our legs, at this point no I was already saying my last prayers.

The other guy who went to defecate came back and they cracked jokes, they untied us, at that point, they already collected our phones, but I had my other Android phone in the car. I couldn't move at that point, they hit the gun on my butt. We came to a little hut.

At this point with 7 men herdsmen came with that little boy, they rescued us all. They were all speaking in their language either they were making incantations I wouldn't say, they collected those guns and shot two men at the spot. At this point I was literally in heaven

Was parked. At this point,we don't know if we should continue our journey to the village or head back to Akure. I was speechless all through the journey till we got to the village. When we got to the village it was my uncle who narrated our ordeal at the hands of those miscreants

Project. Those men rescued us without charging us a dime. They left their own hut with their cows and when we got to that village where we took a vehicle back to where our car was parked, my uncle gave them 20k from what he had on him as part of the project money..
