This was contained in a post on his official Twitter account on Wednesday, thanking God for regaining his freedom after 104 days in captivity.
The politician, who won PDP Rep Ticket while in captivity, noted that the relief he feels at being reunited with his family is temporary knowing he left other victims behind in the terrorists camp.
"Alhamdulillah… I regained freedom after 104 days in captivity. I thank the many people out there, family, friends and well wishers that prayed and wished for my safe return during these trying times. Indeed it is a big relief to be home with family.
"But I am afraid that relief is temporary knowing I left 43 others including aged women and children below the age of 10 that are still in captivity waiting and hoping to be rescued. I am once again calling on the Federal Government and all Nigerians to help secure the release of the remaining victims." he added.

On Sunday, July 10, seven more captives were freed, including Bosede Olurotimi, Abubakar Zubairu, Alhassan Sule, Sadiq Ango Abdullahi, Muhammad Daiyabu Paki, and Aliyu Usman, as well as the only foreign national of Pakistani origin, Dr Muhammad Abuzar Afzal.
The terrorists currently holding up to 43 people kidnapped on the Abuja-Kaduna bound train on March 28, 2022, have refused to release five children among the captives, HumAngle can report.
Among the over 60 victims kidnapped, five are children and remain captive even after 20 persons have been released so far.
“They are four from one family and one from another. The oldest is nine,” one of the recently released captives disclosed.
