The incident occurred at about 7 a.m. at Anguwan Faransa area of the town, residents told PREMIUM TIMES.
The man, who is said to be the principal of a Technical Skill Acquisition Centre in the town, was abducted on his way to work.
A resident of the town, who asked not to be named for security reasons, informed PREMIUM TIMES that the man, whose name he referred to as Mr. Fisch, is a very popular figure in the
town.
“The abductors laid siege on his house, and they came on motorcycles. As soon as the man came out and was about to get into his car, two persons on foot approached him and pointed a gun at him. They now called the two sets on motorcycles who approached them and they carried him away on their motorcycle,” the witness said.
“Almost everybody in this town knows him because he helps us a lot, especially in the area of repairing the town’s water bore holes. Most of the time he uses his own money to buy equipment and repair our boreholes,” he added.
He also said Mr. Fisch trains students on technical and vocational skills free of charge.
The German Embassy in Abuja when contacted over the telephone said they are not aware of the incident.
The Embassy also promised to get back with information as soon as it is available.
