Prof. Oguejiofo Ujam, the Dean of the School of General Studies at the University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN), has been abducted by gunmen suspected to be kidnappers.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred on Sunday morning along the notorious Ugwuogo-Nike-Opi-Nsukka Road, an area increasingly plagued by such criminal activities.<\/p>\n

Prof. Ujam, who also serves as a senior lecturer in the Department of Pure and Industrial Chemistry, was reportedly seized under circumstances that remain unclear. As of now, the kidnappers have not demanded a ransom or reached out to the family, leaving relatives and colleagues anxiously awaiting news.<\/p>\n
