Gunmen ambushed their convoy by opening fire at the guards to stop the vehicles, killing two policemen

"The two oil workers who were abducted by a gang of hoodlums last week have both been rescued from their abductors," Nnamdi said Wednesday.

In a separate case, four government workers from Nigeria's National Emergency Management Agency , three men and a woman, were also freed, NEMA regional chief Walson Brandon said. They were freed on Wednesday, a week after being abducted. A fifth NEMA staff member was shot in the leg during the attack, as he ran to successfully evade capture.
