According to the PPRO, the Commissioner regained his freedom around 6:00 pm on Friday and was reunited with his family
He said Yakubu Lawal was also taken to the hospital for medical examination.
No suspect has been arrested in connection with the abduction but said the police would not relent until the perpetrators are arrested.
