When contacted on Sunday, the Public Relations Officer of the university, Mr Effiong Eyo, said he was just returning from a trip and had been informed of the incident through a text message sent by the victim’s son.

“I just came into town. I will see the Chief Security Officer tomorrow (Monday). I only learnt from a text sent by the son that she was kidnapped from her home,” Eyo stated in a text message sent to Punch Metro.
