In a troubling series of events, gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have reportedly abducted Prof. Oguejiofo Ujam, a senior lecturer and Dean of the School of General Studies at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), PlatinumPost reports.
Professor Ujam, who also teaches in the Department of Pure and Industrial Chemistry, was allegedly taken on Sunday morning along the Ugwuogo-Nike-Opi-Nsukka Road, a stretch that has recently seen multiple abductions.
The kidnappers have yet to make any demands for Professor’s release, adding to the anxiety surrounding the incident.
Just a day prior, another abduction was reported along the same route, with gunmen kidnapping Emeason Chima, an official of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC).
Chima was reportedly driving alone near Maduka University in Igbo-Etiti, Enugu State, when he was taken. His captors have since demanded a N50 million ransom.
Efforts to reach the Enugu State Police Command have so far been unsuccessful, with no official statements on measures being taken.
