Barki, along with two other management staff of the institution and their driver, were reportedly kidnapped on their way to Ugbokolo after an official assignment in Makurdi, the state capital, on Thursday. Daily Post reports that they were abducted by kidnappers along the Otukpo-Otukpa Road. Sources said one of the victims was released due to ill health. A source close to the rector’s family said the kidnappers had made contact with the family and demanded a N70 million ransom.
