Aisha Umar Ado, daughter of a former governorship aspirant in Adamawa state, Dr. Umar Ardo, has been freed by her abductors
She was released on Sunday evening in Gwarimpa Abuja.
Aisha, aged 24 years and popularly called Ummi, was abducted on Saturday at about 7:45pm at Blinkers Shopping Mall, at 46, Kwame Nkrumah Crescent in Asokoro, Abuja.

Quoted by Abubakar Sadiq Ajiya on a facebook post Dr. Ardo wrote “ I’m glad to inform all and sundry that my daughter, Ai’sha, has been released by her abductors. I collected her somewhere around Gwarimpa where they dumped her by the roadside. She is safe and sound. I thank you and all Nigerians for the support given to me during these trying hours. I appreciate that it.”
Abubakar Sadiq Ajiya in another post said ‘Alhamdulillah miss Aishat UMAR Ardo has just been released after her father paid the $15,000 in bitcoin ramsom. She just called her dad to pick her up at 4th Avenue Gwarinpa’
