The joy of some students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN, their parents and guardians over the suspension of the strike action by University Teachers, has turned awry.

Nigerian University Students in public schools had been languishing at home for eight months over the strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities, ASUU, over their welfare and the sorry state of the Universities.

A few days ago, ASUU, grudgingly, called off the strike action. And Students of various institutions promptly packed their things to go back to school.

But for a yet-to-be known number of Students of UNN, their case has become one of “from frying pan to fire.”

On their way back to school over the weekend, they were abducted, along with other passengers, as they were entering Nsukka. The incident happened along the Opi-Nsukka Road, along the Enugu-Nsukka Express Way.

That road, as almost all the States in the South-east, has become notorious for the abduction of innocent and hapless citizens.

The abductors, according to reports, have made contacts with families, and are demanding a whopping N300m in ransom money.

There has been no statement from either the Enugu Police State Command or the authorities of UNN.
