at least 13 persons following the assassination of a lecturer in the Department
of Accounting, University of Calabar, Dr. Emmanuel Igbeng.
The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Hafiz Inuwa, disclosed
that the unidentified student that was shot was rescued and rushed to a
hospital, adding that the victim was responding to treatment.
“At UNICAL hostel, some
students were shooting; they shot somebody, but the person did not die. Some of
the cultists were arrested and recoveries were made in the process,” he said.
The Public Relations Officer
of UNICAL, Mr. Eyo Effiong, in a statement made available to Southern City
News, said two out of the fleeing cultists were apprehended by the
institution’s security team.
Effiong gave the names of the
apprehended students as David Charles Job and Godwin Okpomo.
