OAU Lecturer Kidnapped, Driver Killed, N70m Demanded Last modified onMay 11th, 2015by Olusegun Fapohunda · Posted in General Gunmen abducted Obafemi Awolowo University, OAU lecturer, killed his driver, burnt his car and demanded for N70m ransom. A lecturer at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, Dr. Femi Omisore, who was on his way to attend a funeral at Oye Ekiti in Ekiti State, was kidnapped by unidentified persons at the weekend. The lecturer, it was learned, works at the Department of Environmental Design Ma-nagement of the institution. His captors, who were said to be armed with guns, were said to have trailed him for a while. The driver was said to have noticed them and tried to evade the gang, but the abductors managed to waylay Omisore’s vehicle. On catching up with him, the hoodlums were said to have killed the driver out of anger and took Omisore to an unknown place. The gunmen, it was further gathered, fired several shots at the petrol tank of the lecturer’s car and ensured that the car caught fire before they left the scene. The Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, OAU chapter, Dr. Caleb Aborisade, confirmed the incident. Aborisade said, “According to the information I gathered from his family, Dr. Femi Omisore was kidnapped on Friday evening. He was going for a funeral ceremony in Oye Ekiti. “I learnt that a member of his department was burying his father in Oye Ekiti and he was travelling there when he was kidnapped. “The kidnappers used his telephone to call his wife this on Sunday morning and they demanded N70m ransom. “We are not politicians; where do they expect us to get such amount?” He appealed to Omsiore’s abductor to release the lecturer. He said the family was not rich and could not afford to pay such a huge amount of money. The abduction was also confirmed to our correspondent on the telephone by the Chairman of Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics, Osun State Polytechnic, Iree chapter, Mr. Dotun Omisore. The union leader is a nephew of the abducted lecturer. The ASUP chairman expressed concern at the way lecturers and members of their families were becoming targets of abduction. He called on the government and security agencies in the country to do more to ensure security of lives and property of every Nigerian, saying kidnapping was becoming too rampant. It will be recalled that gunmen had in December 2014 kidnapped the wife of ASUU Chairman, Osun State University chapter, Mrs. Funmilayo Abiona.
