In what seemed like puncturing the good fight the Abia State Governor, Dr.  Alex Otti has had against insecurity in the State since he assumed duty, gunmen Friday dared him and abducted the Deputy Vice Chancellor Academics of Abia State University, Prof. Godwin Emezue. 


It was learned that the kidnappers, said to be more than three in number, invaded their victim at the fuel station, dragged him into a Lexus SUV, and collected his wife’s ATM.


The incident according to reports occurred at a fuel station located at Umuekwule, Amachara in Umuahia South LGA at around 7 p.m. when he was refuelling his vehicle with his wife.


According to his wife, who was with him at the fuel station, the gunmen dragged him into their car and drove away towards the Imo-Abia border.


Confirming the ugly development to our correspondent, a source from the University shared a message that was received from the University WhatsApp group.


The message reads, “Dear Colleagues, greetings to you. Sad to inform you that Prof. G.I. N. Emezue, DVC (Academic) has been kidnapped this evening at his Ezeleke Umuopara Umuahia. We pray for his safety while waiting for their contact as none has come for now.”
