UNILAG GETS NEW DEPUTY VICE-CHANCELLOR (ACADEMIC & RESEARCH)

Poly expels 459 for cultism, others

No  fewer than 459 students of the Federal Polytechnic, Unwana Afikpo, Ebonyi State have been expelled by the management following their alleged involvement in exam malpractices, fighting, cult-related offences and gaining admission into the institution with fake certificates.

The Rector of the institution Dr. Francis Otunta, who disclosed this during the 12th convocation of the institution at its premises, said the polytechnic promotes discipline to stop students from cheating during exams.

According to Otunta, "In a bid to maintain academic excellence, we promote stringent discipline so that our students reconsider cutting corners during examination, since no short cut is a good one. The structure we have in place also discourages undesirable learner behaviour so that we may enjoy peaceful coexistence as one big team, where no one is oppressed or marginalised.”.......................Full Story
