Police in Cross River has debunked the alleged abduction of the suspended Professor of Law and Dean of the Faculty of Law, University of Calabar, Professor Cyril Ndifon.
Police Spokesperson, SP Irene Ugbo, stated in Calabar that NDIFON was not kidnapped but was picked up by government security agents.
NDIFON’s son, David, had earlier told newsmen that gunmen invaded their residence at Akpabuyo in Akpabuyo Local Government Area of Cross River and fired gunshots sporadically before taking his father away.
He said the incident happened between 11pm on Wednesday and the early hours of Thursday.
The University had placed NDIFON on suspension over allegations bordering on sexual harassment of students, among others.
