| Student Expelled from Covenant University for Watching Pòrnography | |
|
A former student of Covenant University, Ota, Ogun state has taken
the institution to court, challenging his illegal expulsion for
allegedly watching Pòrnography and secular music on his laptop.
 The student, Vwamhi Longji Felix, in his 24-paragraph affidavit to support his claim, stated that before he was expelled his parents had spent not less than N10 million on his school fees and other expenses. He was a 400 level student of Communication Technology reportedly expelled on 23rd November 2012, following a night raid by the Student Affairs’ Unit of the institution. This was followed by his appearance before the school’s disciplinary panel which recommended his expulsion. Vanguard reports that at the resumed hearing of the matter yesterday, the prosecuting counsel Segun Fatoki, told the court that Felix was allegedly expelled without an opportunity of a proper hearing or viewing the evidence in accordance with the standard practice as guaranteed by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999. He also claimed that his expulsion was a violation of Section 44 of Chapter 4 of the student Handbook of the Covenant University. However, the school in its counter affidavit stated that in the school hand book it was noted that students are not allowed to be in possession of unholy films and home video or circular music tapes, either stored or directly in the computer or listen through the use of computer radio or any other electronic device when on campus during an academic session. Also, the school claimed that it is an offence that will attract punishment of expulsion for any student who indulges himself or herself in public display of or be in possession of Pòrnographic films or photographs, exploring or viewing Pòrnographic websites on the internet. Vanguard reports that after listening to both parties, Justice Mobolaji Ojo of Ogun State High Court said they should allow every individual to grow life that they need to live adding that if at age 15 to 17 they don’t live that life, they would live it when they are 30 to 35 because of too much rules. “A youth must live like a youth and an adolescent must live like an adolescent. If all of the traits of a youth are not allowed to be exhibited at the right time, it would be done at the wrong time,” Vanguard quoted him as saying. |

A 22-year-old Nigerian, Jude Ejikonye Ilechukwu who resides in
Thailand was recently apprehended by men of the National Drug Law
Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, with 1.295kg of substance discovered to be
methamphetamine.
 Ilechukwu was arrested at the international wing of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos. The drug which was concealed inside his luggage, was detected during the screening of passengers on Ethiopian Airline at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos. The MMIA Commander of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, Hamza Umar, said the drug was carefully hidden in the suspects’ luggage. Umar said: “Like several factory modes of drug concealment, we had to practically cut the bag open to detect the drugs. “Ordinarily, when you open the bag, you will not see the drug. “We found two brown parcels of drugs weighing 1.295kg.” According to Ilechukwu, he was lured into the drug deal by a friend he met in Thailand. In his words: “I am a business man. I relocated to Thailand last year where I buy goods and send to Nigeria. “It was in Thailand that I met a man who introduced me into drug business. He gave my number to his partner in Lagos who lodged me in a hotel. “They made me to contribute N750,000 as my contribution and promised me a handsome reward on arrival in Thailand. “My focus was on the profit that will accrue to me. It was when I was arrested that I realised I had made a big mistake.” The suspect attended Okija Community Primary School and Okija Grammar School, Anambra State before he started business. He will soon be charged to court. |
