On October 5, 2023, early this morning, the law professor was kidnapped.

According to a family source, some ten armed men invaded their home in the Calabar neighborhood of Akpabuyo early in the morning and kidnapped him.

The incident reportedly took place on Thursday between midnight and one in the morning while everyone was asleep, according to the source.

A voice yelled at us to open the door or they will blow it open as there was an abrupt bang at our door.

Ten guys with large weapons quickly vaulted the fence into the compound, opened fire on the sitting room door, and then entered.

When they arrived, they went straight to his room, broke in, dragged him into a waiting van, and then sped off to an unidentified location.

In a telephone interview, Mrs. Ndifon confirmed the abduction, saying: “It is true that my husband was abducted this early morning by heavy-armed men, and I pray he comes back alive.

I don’t know what he did to deserve all of this treatment. I don’t simply know what to do. “

Recall how, on August 14, 2023, law school protesters demonstrated in front of the VC’s office and accused the former dean, among other things, of sexual harassment, extortion, and being overbearing.

Following the demonstration, the university’s administrators set up an inquiry team to investigate into the accusations of impropriety made against Prof. Cyril Ndifon, the dean of law who had been suspended.

Vice Chancellor Prof. Florence Obi asserted her opinion that the report will help the university and serve as a beneficial resource for other universities when the inquiry panel provided it to her earlier this week.

The executive secretary of the National University Commission (NUC) and the ministries of education and women’s affairs would receive the report from her with “nothing added, nothing taken away.”
