Final Year Student Expelled Over Facebook Post Against A #Governor

Akwa Ibom State University has expelled EKPO Iniobong Isang, a final year student of Engineering in the institution over his facebook post against, Udom Emmanuel, the Governor of the state.

On September 7th, the institution suspended the Department of Agricultural Engineering student for what they termed “gross misconduct.”

The student had made a post via his Facebook page reminding Governor Udom Emmanuel that he is yet to redeem his pledge of employing first class graduates of the institution as well as giving them N100,000 each, as promised.

But in a letter dated 9th April, 2021, the university announced the expulsion of the student for the same “gross misconduct” which they said, “constitutes a breach of the Matriculation Oath.”

In the letter signed by John E. Udo, the registrar of the school, they also directed the chief security officer to deny him access to the institution henceforth.

Baba was fighting for first class graduates and I have just learnt that his CGPA is a borderline low 2.2.
So what then was his interest except pure mischief?

You insult your University's most important visitor, their surest meal ticket and you think there will be no consequences?

Doing the right thing in the wrong way.. Four years wasted and finances lost.... I feel sorry for his parents

Useless leaders that won't accept criticism.

The system is that which suppresses truth till everyone compllies with evil.
Instead of others to fight for you, they'll blame you because they've been completely suppressed.

How we wan talk put nw for this mata?

.... they fighting against the youths

Nigeria will never better

Learn to be civil it pay's, stick to the code of conduct of where you belong.
Your brilliant doesn't mean it's a way to be repulsive.
The guys read is like a reminder but he was faulted by the university code of conduct written as oath.

We complain the Nigerian system is not working, first who are the system's, " you and I".
Lets Imagined for instance... if those who lacks decency are giving the opportunity to go abroad, you will see them acting decent and perfect. That's why most of our politician can't stay out there for long. They prefer visiting for 1 or 2 week and there back to Nigeria, Still with there awkward behavior because the system here is not perfect.

Few years ago, it was a Unilag student who was expelled for posting the sorry state of their hostels online. Now this guy has been expelled for "gross misconduct" - a disguised term in a bid to downplay the guy's genuine reminder.

The problem is, you won't see the first class students nor the SUG protesting on his behalf. After all, nobody send am. Before you criticise the authority publicly, make sure you have someone at the top in case things go south. Otherwise, the same people who you are fighting for, if unsuccessful, will later U-turn against you with the hypocritical cowardice-inspired question " who send you?"

omo this country ehn


if you interested in USA, Canada, UK work and study visa
package check my signature to be added to the gc

Welcome to communism under our darling daddy, reminding a governor to redeem his pledge is now a punishable offense

I'm still looking for the "gross misconduct" in his post. Oppression no too much? because omoh. =

Oh God deliver from this shithole nation. Amen


The hardship meted on Nigerians right now is something else. People are seriously hungry

And to even imagine that a youth above me is blaming him shows how much in trouble Nigeria is in... So if his GA IS 2.2 Then be should keep quiet...

Problem too much for this country lol. I pray the school authorities will reserve his explusion or well known people beg on his behalf

Totally Wrong.

Politicians and failed promises,the reason we find ourselves in this horrible situation in Nigeria today....Someone who is bold enough to question the system is now being punished unnecessarily.

Evil prevails when good men do nothing.

I see nothing wrong in what the fella said. The system is built to shut us up for life. In school, your course mates will tell you to “speak for yourself” when you are trying to speak up against injustice just because they’re scared of victimization.

There’s no hope for Nigeria

This one strong oo

Modified: The guy is suing the school, it might take a while but he will be reinstated and he will be compensated if he has a good lawyer

A finalist! Could that be village people at work?

Hmm

Baba should sue the University and cash out.


Less than 10 secs later, another post on the front page saying he is suing...
I just hope he gets justice in this rubbish country.

Akwa Ibom STATE University expels student for insulting a PDP Governor. Thank God this is not an APC state or a Federal University

When they tell you, one day your mouth will put you in trouble, don't sleep on it, rebuke it immediately in the name of Jesus.
