AKWA IBOM GOVT ORDERS REINSTATEMENT OF EXPELLED VARSITY STUDENT

The Akwa Ibom State Government has directed the Akwa Ibom State University to immediately recall Iniobong Ekpo, a student expelled for allegedly insulting the Governor Udom Emmanuel on the social media.

The decision follows the review of a report submitted to the State Executive Council by the Commissioner for Education, Mrs Idongesit Etiebet who chaired the panel to review the circumstances leading to the said student’s expulsion.

The Special Committee which was given two weeks for facts finding on the expulsion, had interviewed the embattled student as well as principal staff of the University.

Although the details of its recommendations were not made public, Governor Udom Emmanuel who has repeatedly showed his passion in educational advancement and human capital development programmes for young people in the state, immediately ordered that the student be allowed back on campus by the University to continue his studies.


Governor Emmanuel also announced that the Ikot Oku Ikono flyover project is ready and will be commissioned on July 16, 2021 by noon.

Briefing journalists on the outcome of the meeting, the Commissioner for Information and Strategy Mr Ini Ememobong said August 21, 2021 has been approved as the state coconut day, when 300,000 nuts will be planted to boost coconut production in preparation for the start of operations of the State owned coconut oil refinery at Mkpat Enin..

Kudos to the governor

What about the person that suspended him. People should be made to suffer consequences of their actions and decisions.

This report celebrating the governor as a person who values education is stupid too. If not for the public outcry, this decision wouldn't have happened

Sycopancy is when Africans see leaders holding a position as second to God.

Worshiping of office holders is the catalyst of corruption bedeviling this country.

Thanks to the governor for shaming the sycophants.
