Nigeria kidnappers free SA man

Pretoria, 09 March-(ANA)-A South African TV worker has been freed by Nigerian kidnappers a week after he was taken near the oil-rich Delta region.

Nick Greyling, a sound engineer from South African TV channel SuperSport, was abducted along with two Nigerian co-workers in Owerri.

One of his colleagues escaped a day after the abduction, but the fate of the other man is not yet clear.

The men were seized after they had been covering a football match in Enugu.

Nomfanelo Kota, from South Africa's international relations department, confirmed Mr Greyling's release. (ANA)
