By Sunny Nwankwo, Umuahia

Gunmen have abducted unspecified students of Abia State University (ABSU) Uturu.

But The Nation learnt two of them escaped from the abductors.

It was gathered the victims were seized from a mini bus heading to Uturu from Okigwe in Imo State.

The incident, which has thrown the ABSU community into anguish, occurred between 7-8pm on Wednesday.

Commissioner of Information, John Okiyi-Kalu, confirmed the incident to our correspondent.

He said the students were attacked by gunmen in Imo State and not Abia State as being speculated on social and by mainstream media houses.

Okiyi-Kalu, who said the Abia Government is monitoring development on the incident, said the two students were able to escape from their captors when they were marched into a nearby forest alongside other travelers.

“When they ran into the armed gang who marched them into the nearby forest along with other yet to be identified travelers.

“Two of the students managed to escape from the hoodlums while others are still being held at a yet to be identified location.

“We are working with the government of Imo State and relevant security agencies in both states to ensure the rescue of the abducted students and others.

“Members of the public and ABSU community are advised to remain calm as we will spare no resource in ensuring the safety of the victims.

“No criminal operating within our environment will be allowed to escape justice as we take the job of protecting lives and property of Abians and visitors to the State very seriously,” he said.

I was surprised to read Abia state. Because kanu always attacks in other states. I know Kanu works with PDP, his boys will hardly attack Abia. Just like his sister in the police wont be killed.

Lolz Abia state
Abia they only state that has University in another state

They problem is uturu okigwe where Abia state University is in IMO state/Abia state
And less attention is being paid to it by both states,
To worsen the whole case
A Fulani large community is there, few kilometers from the school and also few kilometers from okigwe
It houses the biggest cattle market in southern Nigeria.
(The lokapanta cattle market),
If you are plying that route immediately you reach that area, boom you will automatically think you are in the north!
Fulani people everywhere..
So it would be easy for the Fulani bandits to launch attack around okigwe/isukwuato and umuneochi cos nah Fulani people full there

Help me and tell your brothers in
Benin republic
That they shouldn't panic
One Igbo business man is coming to share palliative 2morrow.
They show arrange themselves orderly
B4 we get there 2morrow
I wouldn't like them to show Benin people there agbero and unorganized pattern of life,

Also encourage them to find something doing there in Benin republic,
They grown up ones should continue they already established skull mining business in which is a know legacy, while the younger ones that aren't apprentice to any skull mining or organ harvesting company, should also continue the internet fraud Yoruba business,

Pls tell them to bear with us
As there won't be any form of owambe,
Or eating of hydraulic soup sorry ewedu

As we are working in hand with the seriki igangan of the great Yoruba Nation, HRM iskilu wakili to secure more space for the (Coward) sorry great people of the Yoruba Nation that would be arriving Benin republic in different batches from now till further notice..

Kindly bear with us as we pray for you here I
Nigeria,
Sunday igboho the (brave) igbo wannabe would shortly be with you as his has been trying to convince the Fulani rulers of the Yoruba Nation to extend more time to they remaining Yoruba people still in Nigeria to pack up there belongings (for a successful Benin republic trip)
Stay safe over there

Okigwe to Absu ...a memory .....but I think Imo state should take responsibility sha.... Schools around that axis should take necessary precautions in terms of security.

Maybe the DSS is not current with the recent happenings in the country. Because the country is already deep in anarchy and those that caused it are in Aso rock supporting Killer herdsmen, sympathize with Boko Haram, other Jihadists, releasing them without trial while paying huge money to Bandits. Meanwhile, the victims are in IDP camps without plans for compensation. They should have good intelligent network to know all these and be responsive. These kind of threats reduces their capacity
