Rev. Father Chinedu was said to have been abducted along the Umunneochi axis of the Enugu-Aba-Port Harcourt Expressway.

Fr. Chinedu was said to be the Deputy Registrar of a private university located in Umunneochi local government area.
The Catholic Priest was said to have been abducted with a seminarian while travelling to Enugu State.

There were unconfirmed reports that the abductors have made contact with the school to demand for N50m ransom.
