There was panick and tension on Friday morning at Ughelli as gunmen suspected to be kidnappers
struck at Oharisi Primary School, along Isoko Road, abducted a female teacher
of the school and shot the school’s security guard on the leg.
Sources at the scene
of the incident told Vanguard that the victim simply identified as Mrs. Uba,
was on her way to school at about 7a.m when the gunmen dressed in police
uniform, accosted her after shooting into the air to scare passersby, forced
her into their car and whisked her to an unknown destination.
The school’s security guard, who was said to
have wanted to engage the hoodlums, was shot on the leg and rushed to a private
hospital in the area for medical attention.
Friday’s
incident is coming three days after another gang of suspected armed robbers
shot a middle aged man at the ever busy Post Office roundabout in Ughelli,
Delta State.
The
hoodlums, who came in a Toyota Corolla car, had waited for their target at a
building store where they ambushed him on arrival at the shop.
His
son, who had accompanied him, was shot twice on the chest and back and is currently
receiving medical attention at the Delta State University Teaching Hospital,
DELSUTH, Oghara.
