How Abducted UNTH Doctor Escaped As Kidnappers Fell Asleep After Smoking Weed

An abducted resident doctor attached to the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, UNTH, Ituku-Ozalla, Enugu State, Dr. Orockarrah Orock, has escaped from kidnappers' den.

It was gathered that Orock, who is attached to the Anaesthesia Department of the UNTH was kidnapped on Saturday night, November 4, 2023, within the hospital premises, while on call duty.

The Chairman of the Nigeria Medical Association, NMA, Enugu State Chapter, Dr Celestine Ugwoke, confirmed the development to the News Agency of Nigeria in Enugu on Monday, November 6.

Mr. Ugwoke said that Orock miraculously escaped after the kidnappers felt satisfied with his wife's offer to pay the ransom they demanded and went to have a “nice time with their weeds and spirits and fell into a deep sleep’

According to him, the abducted doctor gradually crawled away from the spot he was kept in the kidnappers’ den and later trekked and ran a distance before sighting human activities and then came out near the Four Corner Junction of Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway.

"He called his wife and the wife called the UNTH chief security officer who picked him up at midnight on Saturday. We are profoundly grateful to God for his miraculous escape,” he said.

The chairman, however, said that doctors had become endangered professionals in the state, as kidnappers always target them especially those working in tertiary health institutions in the state.
