LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)– The Osun State University has suspended a 100-level student of its Department of English and Literary Studies for her alleged involvement in the robbery of a businessman based in Lagos of N1.5 million.
The Vice Chancellor of the university, Prof Clement Adebooye, announced the suspension of Victory Ahiante on 16 July, while addressing journalists on the main campus in Osogbo, the Osun State capital.
Adebooye said university authorities have decided to place Ahiante on indefinite suspension in line with regulations guiding studentship pending the determination of her case.

Recall that voiceofnaija.ng earlier reported that a 17-year-old female student of the said university, and her boyfriend, Ayobami Ariyo, had been paraded at the State Police command headquarters, Osogbo, for allegedly obtaining N1.5m from a complainant they lured from Lagos to Osun State.
Adebooye expressed shock at the allegation levelled against the accused saying it doesn’t tally with the university’s standards in character and learning.
“As we all know, Osun State University is widely renowned for our commitment to excellence in academics and core values of the responsible, law-abiding, and highly patriotic citizenry. We remain absolutely committed to these ideals,” the Vice Chancellor said.
