Former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Okey Wali, SAN, who was abducted by kidnappers, has been released.

It is believed that Wali is receiving medical attention at an undisclosed location.

The former NBA President was reportedly still in the custody of his kidnappers as of last night, but was released earlier today.
