According to a letter of suspension addressed to the affected student and signed by the University Registrar, Mr Gabriel Egbe, Livinson Arikpo has repeatedly been involved in acts of lawlessness capable of disrupting the peace and serenity of the University.

In one instance, Livinson Arikpo was reported to have, shortly after the inauguration of the immediate past Student Union Government (SUG) Executives, allegedly locked the SUG President out of his official residence in the hostel, demanding that he (Livingson Arikpo) be “settled as a stakeholder”.

Recently, precisely on Tuesday, July 2nd, 2024, Livinson Arikpo was alleged to have taken advantage of the epileptic power supply on campus and mobilized some students to protest, locking out staff and peace-loving students.

Livinson Arikpo was said to have vehemently rebuffed all requests by the Substantive SUG President, the Dean of Students and other well-meaning staff to open the gates.

As if that was not enough, he was said to have forcefully put off the generator that supplies power to the pumping machine used to supply water to the hostels with the intent to incite the students against the University Administration.

The letter reads in part… “Such uncivilized and lawless conducts are unbecoming of a student, who is supposedly trained in character and learning. Your actions, as you know, contravene the provisions of the Students’ Handbook and your Matriculation Oath.
The Vice-Chancellor has therefore directed that you should be suspended.

You are hereby suspended from all academic activities of the University while the matter is referred to the Students’ Disciplinary Committee for further investigation.

When the people indicting him are the same persons that are the judge, jury and executioner in this case; I would enjoin you all to take this report with a pinch of salt.

Is it wrong to demand that the right thing should be done by those who were responsible for ensuring that there was light and water in the hostel

Five days after the incident, there is still no light or water for students to use. And this time around no one can protest because no student wants to be suspended.

This is a case of institutional corruption and abuse of power.

What happened to the character they say they have as an institution. No meeting has been held to at least let the students know that their situation is being handled by the staff responsible.

Students are suffering silently. People usually complain when they are the recipient of injustices, but when they are the ones dishing it out they feel justified by their actions.

Why is this true? In 2020 universities embacked on an eight month strike. It was a form of protest against injustice. But now, Unical administrators feel it's absurd for students in similar situations to complain.

The swiftness with which they came to that conclusion makes it seem like they act with such swiftness in all situations. We no this is not true, because they situation for which he was suspended still persist has its yet to be addressed.

What I'm saying is that if something smells fishy, it must be a fish.

No too carry public matters for head the go leave u run
