Two gunmen in Akwa Ibom State shot a middle-aged woman, Mrs. Elizabeth Obio, and abducted her two-year-old son.

The incident occurred around 6:07pm on Thursday along Ikot Obio Nko in Ibesikpo/Asutan Local Government.






Obo, who is presently hospitalised in the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital, is seeking the assistance of security operatives and public-spirited individuals to help rescue her son.

She told source that the little boy, who was her third child, would be three years in September.

She said the men who attacked her came on a motorbike and began dragging the boy with her and because she refused to let go of the boy, one of the men brought out a gun and shot her at the back.

She said, “We came back from the farm on Thursday evening and wanted to go to the stream with my husband. My third child (the boy) insisted he must come with us.

Initially, I was reluctant to let her follow us, but because he was crying seriously, the father said we should take him.

“When we got to a hilly area where the motorcycle we were riding could not continue, my husband dropped us and asked us to move towards the stream where he would meet us.
