Abducted former FUTA VC found dead

The dead
body of a
former
Vice
Chancellor of FUTA, Professor Albert
Ilemobade, who was said to have been
kidnapped, has been found in his house
at Ijapo in Akure, Ondo State capital on
Sunday morning.
According to a family source, Professor
Ilemobade’s driver and gateman killed
the former University Don in his house
and made away with his Toyota SUV.
However, they ran out of luck as Police
intercepted the car at Ogun State,
which led to the arrest of the suspects
and eventual discovery of Professor
Ilemobade’s dead body at the store in
his house.
The decomposed body of the professor
has been deposited at an undisclosed
mortuary in the state capital.
Professor Ilemobade had been reported
kidnapped last Sunday when his
whereabouts were unknown.
The Public Relations Officer of Ondo
State Police Command, Wole Ogodo, told
Channels TV correspondent that the
Command would brief the press as soon
as they get enough relevant
information about it.
Abduction Story
In the earlier report during the week,
which has now been found to be untrue,
Professor Ilemobade was said to have
been abducted alongside his gateman at
his residence.
His housemaid reportedly saw the
gunmen when they took the former don
away.
According to the report, the gunmen, on
their arrival at the residence of the
former Vice Chancellor, approached the
gateman, but before he knew what was
happening a gun was reportedly pointed
at him and he was asked to lead them to
the living room where the former Vice
Chancellor was accosted and asked to
follow them to their vehicle.
The so-called abductors whisked both
the Professor and the gateman away to
an unknown destination.
