by Rachel Ogbu

A female lecturer at the University of Uyo was kidnapped on Friday night by gunmen in front of her resident on Idoro Road in Uyo.

According to reports, Ime Udotong who lectures in Biochemistry department of the university was on her way home from work when she was kidnapped by the gunmen and her destination still remains unknown.

An eyewitness who spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) said Udotong works in the same department with her husband, Prof. Ime Udotong. She was “driving a jeep while her abductors followed her with a salon car and blocked her way when she was close to her house,” the eyewitness said.

“I suspect she was trailed from school to her house because there is no other way her place would have been known by people other than those close to her.

“I noticed that she had observed the car trailing her and she attempted to rush into her compound, when the kidnappers crossed her car and forced her into their own car.

“Immediately they got her into their own car, they zoomed off through a different direction,” the eyewitness said.

Vanguard reports:

NAN gathers that following a distress call, the police arrived at the scene of the incident few minutes after the gunmen had made away with their victim.

The Commissioner of Police in Akwa Ibom, Mr. Umar Gwadabe said, “we have just received the report of the kidnap and we are working on it”. (NAN)
