UNICAL SECURITY OPEN FIRE ON MEDICAL STUDENTS OVER KIDNAP OF SUG PRESIDENT.

At about 5:00pm On Tuesday, 24th of April 2018, pandemonium broke out at the Hall 2 hostel in main camp of the University of Calabar.

The crisis happened when the incumbent Students' Union Government President Afufu Anthony forcefully broke into the Medical hostel with some students alongside the declared winner Enyam Kelvin, in the controversial election which held on Tuesday, 24th April. The hostel was earlier shut until when cars drove into the surroundings and began throwing bottles at the hostel block and shattering glasses. The entry of the SUG President and his companions ended in inflicting injuries to residents who tried to hold the door in place. The Students Union Government President was then escorted into the common lounge while the gates were kept shot, to prevent harm from coming to him and ensure that he is available to be held responsible for the damages to school property and the disruption of Peace.

Security men from the surveillance unit arrived the hostel and attempted to break the locks, after failed attempts the security men opened fire thereby injuring students who ran away.

They Also threatened to shoot at medical students who stood by the gate.

The Chief Security Officer, Mr Simon Jarlath arrived the premises and had a conversation with the Senate President, Etta Enyi whom resides in the hall after which he threatened residents that should the President fail to be released within a stipulated period, police officers would gain entry by whatever means.

The residents duly released the SUG President unharmed, from where he was taken away with the security. When students demanded that attention should be given to injured medical students who were left unattended to, security men ended up shooting into the air to scare off students.

Calm has since returned to the hall, but the residents are left to live in fear over a possible reprisal from the hoodlums who accompanied the popular SUG President, as well as his loyalists and sympathizers in and around campus.

More details would follow.
