Update: Hotelier killed by kidnappers was abducted same day he arrived Ogbomoso from his base in US – Friend claims

The proprietor of Tana Suites, Olugbenga Owolabi, who was killed by kidnappers in Ogbomoso had reportedly arrived in the community from the US the same day he was abducted.

A friend of the deceased, Olukayode Olawepo, who disclosed this said the father of four and his family are based in Maryland, U.S.

Owolabi and his worker, Rachael Opadele, a final year student of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, were kidnapped last week in Abaa, a community close to the school and killed on Tuesday after N5m ransom payment.

A motorcycle operator, who carried a family member with the ransom to the designated spot in the bush along Ogbomoso-Ilorin Expressway, was also killed while the passenger sustained injuries.
