Kidnapped Managing Director of the Bank of Agriculture, Alwan Ali-Hassan, was released in the spirit of Ramadan, his captors have said. In the video, Ali-Hassan was flanked by four heavily armed men dressed in military camouflage. We decided to release this man (Ali-Hassan) because of the honour of the month of Ramadan and because he is old. The Kaduna-bound train officially had over 362 passengers but unconfirmed reports claimed the passengers were more than that. In this video, they released the MD of Bank of Agric because “he’s old and it’s Ramadan”.
