Her Honda Crosstour SUV, which she was driving at the time of kidnap and the colleague that accompanied her, were left behind.

But the hoodlums dispossessed her colleague of her hand bag and phones before she was allowed to go.

The incident comes a few days after a PUNCH journalist, Okechukwu Nnodim, was abducted at his residence in Kubwa, a satellite town in Abuja.

Nnodim was released on Saturday night after spending three nights in captivity.
