OBAFEMI AWOLOWO UNIVERSITY (OAU) ISSUES PRESS RELEASE ON THE VIRAL VIDEO OF LECTURER WHO ALLEGEDLY ASSAULTED A STUDENT
LECTURER ASSAULTS OAU STUDENT
The attention of the authorities of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, has been drawn to a video, which has gone viral about a lecturer in the University, who allegedly assaulted a part two student.
Displeased with the content in the viral video, the Vice- Chancellor of the University, Professor Adebayo Simeon Bamire, has directed the setting up of a fact-finding committee to unravel the circumstances surrounding the unfortunate occurrence.
The University authorities wish to state categorically that what happened in the viral video, is not in the University’s character. The University is a decent and diligent institution, which will not tolerate any form of abuse or maltreatment from anyone.
The University authorities, therefore, apologise to the generality of the people, especially our alumni, whose sensibilities might have been assaulted by that shenanigan.
The University authorities appeal to the students to remain calm and go about their normal academic activities. All stakeholders are assured that justice will be served accordingly and appropriately.
