ESUT VC Kidnappers Demands N200M Ransom Else He Dies! by Frank3n2(m): 11:31am On Aug 17, 2012
The abductors of the Vice Chancellor of Enugu State
University of Science and Technology, ESUT,
Professor Cyprian Onyeji, have demanded a ransom
of about N200 million as a condition for his release.
The four victims killed in the renewed cult war were
killed at different points within Enugu capital city
Thursday. Two were killed in the morning at Adelabu
and Peter Okoye streets, Uwani area of Enugu while
one was killed at Onuasata in the afternoon.
The fourth, a councilor in one of the local councils of
the state was shot dead Thursday evening at One
Day Road, Awkunanaw.
The assailants used cars for the operation and were
heavily armed, according to an eyewitness. The
cultists resorted to using cars for their nefarious
activities following the ban on motorcycles which
they normally use to escape after launching an
attack.
The killings came on the heels of the police hunt for
the kidnappers of ESUT Vice Chancellor, whose
official vehicle, a Hunda Accord in which he was
taken away on Wednesdday was reportedly found
Thursday.
Although the police did not confirm the ransom
demand, they confirmed that the vehicle was
recovered intact. Sources said that the kidnappers
made telephone contacts with Professor Onyeji’s
family and made the ransom demand Thursday but
the person who received the call could not be
ascertained.
Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Enugu State
Command, Mr. Ebere Amaraizu said the police were
on top of the situation saying that they have spread
their dragnets for a crackdown on the abductors.
The police spokesman confirmed the killings in cult
related violence, saying that the police is
investigating the killings.
