The Olubadan second-in-command, who confirmed the release Tuesday evening, however, said a ransom of N10 million was paid for the release of the twins, a boy and a girl. He also confirmed the payment of N10m ransom before the release of the children. He said that the money was nothing compared to the joy of the safe return of his kids.
The mother of the twins, Mrs Balogun who also corroborated the report given by her husband in a telephone conversation disclosed that she could not vividly describe her state of mind on sighting the children seven days after they were abducted.
Mrs Balogun said: “To say that I was happy and I’m still happy now is an understatement and I can’t be thankful enough to God Almighty for protecting my children during the period, just as I thank everybody involved in the release. She expressed optimism that the medical report being awaited would be favourable and promised that they would come back to Ibadan as soon as possible.

At least they did not lie about paying the ransom.
