Anambra residents have raised the alarm over the kidnap of a female Professor of the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Igbariam, Anambra East local government area by unknown gunmen.
The incident took place along Enugwu-Agidi -Nawgu road close to 7pm on Wednesday.
The kidnap of the lecturer may not be unconnected with the recent #ENDSARS protest in the state where eleven Police stations were burnt and six others destroyed by hoodlums.
An eye witness who spoke with The Nation Thursday, said the kidnappers were three in number and were armed with three AK -47 riffles.
The Nation further gathered that the victim hailed from Enugwu Ukwu Community in Njikoka local government area of the State.
It was the second time such kidnap would happen at the same spot involving a lecturer of Ojukwu University in recent times.
The President General of Enugwu-Agidi brotherly Union (EBU), Hon Ndubuisi Obijiofor related the incident to the deplorable condition of the road.
He said those who made constant use of the road were more vulnerable to such attack from hoodlums and warned that people should avoid that area late hours.
