The suspended dean of law faculty of the University of Calabar (UNICAL), Professor Cyril Osim Ndifon, has been reportedly abducted by gunmen. It was learnt that the gunmen, numbering about 8, stormed the residence of Prof Ndifon at Akpabuyo at about 1am and whisked him away. A family source told journalists that 10 heavily armed men jumped over the fence into the compound and went straight into his room, picked him up, dragged him into a waiting van and zoomed off.
A man who a woman allowed to sleep on her sofa after he had too much to drink was sentenced Monday to more than five years in prison for attacking that woman.
