4. That he held the Student/Tobi by his trousers.

As United Nations ambassadors on OAU campus, we seek for a peaceful resolution to this case. We implore the school management to urgently look into this issue and respond appropriately. We have discovered from all sides that the student was unduly punished and publicly embarrassed by the lecturer. We believe in and uphold the basic law of "innocent until proven guilty". We will also like to say that the student after being found guilty should have been allowed to face the afore-stated discipline regarding examination malpractice as stipulated by the University laws and shouldn't have been manhandled.

Suggested Action Points
1. That the OAU management set up an unbiased inquiry into this incidence.
2. That any discovered violation of the University's standing laws be taken seriously.
3. That an adequate compensation to the aggrieved party be decided and implemented after the inquiry.
4. That a public apology to the aggrieved party be made by the accused party, as the aggrieved was publicly disgraced and humiliated.
5. That a communique be issued denouncing the act to forestall future similar acts.
