ESUT Vice-Chancellor kidnapped by unknown gunmen

The Enugu State University of Technology [ESUT] Vice-Chancellor, Professor Cyprian Onyeji has reportedly been kidnapped by unknown gunmen.

DailyPost gathered that the suspected kidnappers, numbering about 10 apprehended the VC at the front gate of the university around 11.30 am this morning when he was being driven into the main campus of the institution.
It was gathered from an eyewitness that four of the gunmen had apparently been lurking in a rickety car parked at the school gate, awaiting the
VC’s arrival.
“As soon as they sighted his two-vehicle convoy, the gunmen used the rickety car to block the gate, jumped out and started shooting into the air.
“Six others appeared from nowhere and attacked the convoy and they shot and deflated the four tyres of the police van escorting the VC” the eyewitness sated.
A policeman in the escort van who tried to resist them was shot while the gunmen dragged the VC’s orderly and driver out of the car and drove off with Onyeji in his official Honda car.
Some of the gunmen also jumped into a car they had parked at a motor park at the school’s entrance and drove behind the VC’s car.
