Akwa Ibom State University Student Suspended for Allegedly "Abusing" Governor UDOM Emmanuel on Facebook.

Ekpo Iniobong Isang aka Afrosix Jaara is the student suspended indefinitely by the Akwa Ibom State University with the unnecessary excuse that he insulted Governor Udom Emmanuel on Facebook.

According to him, the school management had convened a meeting on 26th August, 2020 (while schools were not on session because of the covid-19 lockdown) for the hearing of his facebook post against the governor. According to the school management, a letter was sent to him to appear before the panel, but he Ekpo, Iniobong said he never received a letter or any invitation verbally from the school, for an appearance before the panel. He said the only letter he had ever received from the school was a letter of indefinite suspension which was sent to his parents in Lagos.

It should be noted that,

1. The school authority convened its 63rd meeting at a time when school was not on session and the said student was in Lagos.

2. The student in question did not receive any invitation letter to appear before the said 63rd Senate Meeting as claimed by the school.

3. The school found it funny to suspend a student for saying the truth and call it abusive post.

Attached below are the letter of suspension and the students response to the letter as well as the said post that got him suspended.

I am not however surprised that Akwa Ibom state had already danced into a totalitarian regime under the leadership of governor Udom Emmanuel. We have seen the freedom of speech and freedom of expression of citizens being trampled upon by this administration. Little wonder the state institution under his watch is trying please him with so much effort.

Come and help this brother...he needs us

JUSTICE for AFROSIX JAARA


Vice Chancellor should leave social media and concentrate on making our Universities a better place of learning.

Did the school just discover the post made in 2019?

This is totally wrong.


Udom has failed Akwaibomites full time.
