FORMER Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academics) of the University of Ibadan, Professor Adigun Agbaje, has been kidnapped along the Lagos/Ibadan Expressway by yet-to-be-identified gunmen. 

According to reports, Agbaje, who is on sabbatical at Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, was on his way to Ibadan at about 6pm on Friday, when the kidnappers blocked his way very close to the Sat Guru Maharaji Garden. 

It was gathered that the kidnappers have contacted Agbaje’s family, demanding a N50million ransom, while the university community and a host of Agbaje’s friends are said to be deliberating on the next step to take in a bid to get the victim out of his captors’ den. 

Adigun Agbaje, a professor of Political Science, is one of UI’s most respected products ever. 

He was, for decades the only First Class graduate in the university’s department of Political Science, until the feat was equalled by Tunde Oseni, currently an Associate Professor at Lead City University, Ibadan, in the 2000s. 

Adigun is as loved by majority of his students as he was brilliant as a student himself. He is also a lover of press freedom, having supported the growth of journalism on UI campus in various capacities, beginning with the umbrella Union of Campus Journalists (UCJ).
