Kidnapped oil workers released in Nigeria

Nigerian separatist militants released four foreign oil workers on Monday, after holding them hostage in the swamps of the Niger Delta for almost three weeks, officials and their employer said. The men — an American, a Briton, a Bulgarian and a Honduran — have been handed over to the Bayelsa State government.
