Some unknown gunmen on Thursday abducted an assistant Chief Nursing Officer with the Babcock University Teaching Hospital, Ilisan Remo, Mrs Elizabeth Uruakpa.
Uruakpa, 66, was said to be coming from the evening church service when the gunmen who had laid ambush swooped on her at the entrance of her house behind the new Ilisan market.
The incident reportedly made the neighbourhood panic as many residents and shop owners quickly shut their doors to avoid being unaware.
A resident of the area who spoke to PUNCH correspondent on the condition of anonymity, said, “The woman was coming back from the church in the evening around 7 pm when the gunmen abducted her. I know her very well, she’s a senior nursing staff with Babcock University Teaching Hospital and a member of the Winners’ Chapel.
“They dragged her down from her vehicle, put her in their red Toyota car and sped away. It was really like thunder lightning, and such a thing had never happened before in our neighbourhood. It is so strange and scary.”
The university’s Director of Communication and Marketing, Dr Joshua Suleiman, confirmed the worrisome development to our correspondent on Friday.
He said. “I heard about it last night. It is on one of the university’s platforms but I don’t have a comprehensive report about it. Someone is already working on getting more information about this and as soon as it is ready, I will get across to you. ”
Efforts to get the reaction of the spokesperson, Ogun State Police Command, Omolola Odutola, were futile as calls put to her mobile number were unreachable and messages sent to her lines were yet to be replied to as of the time of filing this report
