UNIDENTIFIED gunmen in the wee hours of Wednesday morning abducted
the 3years old son of an accountant at the Delta State University
Teaching Hospital, DELSUTH, Oghara in Ethiope West Local Government Area
of Delta State.
It was gathered that the gunmen numbering over 5, stormed the old
Benin Road residence of the accountant identified as Peter Nwabueze,
robbed him and his neighbours of cash and other valuable items before
abducting his 3years old son.
Confirming the incident, a staff of the hospital who spoke on
anonymity, stated that Peter Nwabueze is the head of the Revenue unit of
the hospital while his wife, is a nurse at the Renal Unit.
The spate of kidnapping at Oghara which also plays host to the
headquarters of the Nigerian Navy Logistics Command and the Western
Delta University, has been on the increase thereby making staff of
DELSUTH flee the community in their droves to reside in other adjourning
communities where they come to work from.
Recounting his ordeal, a neighbour of the Nwabuezes who was also
robbed during the incident, told Vanguard that the gunmen broke into
their apartment through the wall after removing the barb wires on top
the fence surrounding the compound.
As at press time it could not be confirmed if the abductors have made contact with the Nwabueze family for ransom..
