A Lebanese expatriate, who was kidnapped in Nigeria, was released for ransom, reported the National News Agency on Wednesday.

It said that Saadallah al-Seqlawi was abducted some ten days ago by gunmen in Nigeria.

His family refused to disclose details on his release.

Seqlawi hails from the town of Deir Qanoun Ras al-Ain in the southern region of Tyre.

Kidnappings for ransom are common in Nigeria, with scores of foreigners, including those from the sizable Lebanese community, targeted every year.
