A former Deputy Vice Chancellor, Academics, at the University of Ibadan, Professor Adigun Agbaje, has been kidnapped.

The Professor was kidnapped at about 6.00pm on Friday, along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

The incident, during which a number of others were kidnapped, happened close to the Kingdom of Sat Guru Maharaji.

The daring kidnappers also attacked a Police checkpoint near the scene, and killed a Police Officer in the process.

Professor Agbaje’s abductors have made contacts with his family and are asking for N50m in ransom money.

Agbaje is on sabbatical  at the Olabisi Onabanjo University, and was on his way to Ibadan when he was kidnapped.
