BananaTree:
You were rude in that letter and made unsubstantiated claim and allegations. There is a thin line between constructive criticism and libel.

The same way one Adeyeye Olufemi called senate of the University of Lagos a conglomeration of academic ignorami. He went ahead to call the resources invested on the VC a waste. Was that meant to be constructive criticism or a coordinated, sponsored attack on the VC and others mentioned and alleged in the article?

You should dance to the tune of the music you played for yourself. Young people should understand that in their quest for fame, unsubstantiated claims can land them in trouble.

Clowns parading as activists.

It is called freedom of speech
The guy did no wrong
He wasn't rude

Shehuyinka:
A STUDENT at the Department of Forestry and Wildlife, Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) Ogun State, Ifemosu Micheal expelled by the university has explained the reason behind his expulsion.

Micheal was expelled by the university authorities after the institution’s disciplinary committee found him guilty of insubordination and defamation of character through the article he published.

“I wrote about the school’s transportation system and the indiscriminate arrest of students of the institution by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) and the Economic Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) within the school premises,” he said in a phone chat with The ICIR.

He said FUNAAB Bureau of Transportation (FUNAABOT) has performed below expectations as there is unavailability of buses to convey almost 15,000 students of the institution.

He therefore demanded in his article an explanation from the school management on the causes of unavailability of buses to convey the students to school but did not query how the FUNAABOT spent the money on exotic cars as alleged by the institution.

He, however, told The ICIR that he was not expelled because of the article he wrote, saying that the article was merely used as a cover-up.

“Witch-hunting and politicking is the reason behind my expulsion by the Varsity’s management,” Micheal said.

He alleged that the management found out that he is the General Secretary of African Action Congress, Ogun state, a party registered by the publisher of Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore.

He said when he was interviewed by the School Disciplinary Committee, one of the members of the committee said he made research on him and knows about his alliance with Omoyele Sowore.

“I was asked at the meeting with the School Disciplinary Committee if I know the Vice-Chancellor is the Buhari of the institution?” he said.

He stated that when he asked for an explanation of the statement, he was told the Vice-Chancellor is representing the Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari in the University and since his affiliation is against him then he is against the Vice-Chancellor of the school.

The ICIR contacted the FUNAAB Dean of Student Affairs, Babatunde Idowu, who said allegations made by Ifemosu Micheal before and after his allegations are wrong.

He said as a member of the senate committee of the institution, he was part of the meeting that decided that Ifemosu Micheal be expelled from the school.

According to him, he said he invited the expelled student to his office about the article and demanded that he provide evidence for alleging that the FUNAABOT mismanaged funds meant for the maintenance of the transport system.

The DSA said before he was invited to the Disciplinary Committee, he had personally called him to his office to educate and counsel him about his allegations.

No. There's a reason you can sue for libel. Freedom of speech doesn't cover libel and defamation. Address the issues squarely and leave out frivolities as saying it's because lecturers don't have enough grant to depend on that make them contest for the position of the VC and that they contested for the position to psiphon money.

Bros, even if they steal, what evidence have you? The cardinal principle of law states that he who asserts must prove. How would he prove that before any panel in the world?

He'll waste his time and money in court. He wasn't expelled because he has an affiliation with Sowore. That would be dishonest. Go and read his article again.
