BIGPENNGR.COM reports that Idamoyibo was abducted alongside two others who were with him in his Toyota Highlander jeep at Eku junction in Ethiope East Local Government Area of Delta State.

The lecturer and others were taken to unknown destination after the hoodlums chased and shot the tyres of his car to a halt within Abraka community.

It was learnt that the lecturer was trying to escape into Abraka town from the venue of a family meeting when the hoodlums who were on their trail shot the tyres of his car to a halt.
