The duo were abducted by unknown gunmen last Wednesday at their residence in Damba Area of Gusau.

Sources close to the family disclosed that the  victims were released on Friday evening after spending more than 48 hours in captivity.

During the invasion of the residence, the heavily armed men shot multiple bullets at the door to gain access into the house, before whisking away the nursing mother and her baby.

The assault left the husband with a gunshot wound on his left arm.

“Alhamdulillah, Glory be to Allah, my wife and my baby regained freedom,” the former councilor, Babangida Haruna, posted on his Facebook page.

It is, however not clear whether a ransom was paid before the kidnapped victims were released.
