With a surge of fervor, University of Calabar’s law department students staged a protest aimed squarely at their dean, the distinguished Prof. Cyril Ndifon.
In a resounding declaration, they hurled forth grave accusations, boldly asserting that the Dean callously subjected them to the harrowing ordeal of sexual harassment, accompanied by ominous threats.
Also the students, in a viral video, raised claims of encountering suppression from the institution’s authorities.
Prof. Ndifon had previously been ousted from his role as the Dean of Law due to accusations of a heinous nature in 2016.
In a distressing incident on August 29, 2015, he was alleged to have sexually assaulted a 20-year-old student (whose identity remains confidential) in his faculty after summoning her to his office.
However, the University of Calabar (UNICAL) controversially reinstated him as the Dean of its law faculty in 2022.
Unical female Law students have called out their Dean, Prof Cyril Ndifon. Right now they are being threatened and shushed by the establishment.
