Governor Udom Emmanuel has set up a five-man investigative panel headed by the Commissioner for Education, Mrs Idongesit Etiebet, to review the case of one Iniobong Ekpo, who was expelled by the Akwa Ibom State University, Ikot Akpaden.
Ekpo, a 500-level student in the Department of Agricultural Engineering of the institution, was suspended in September 2020 and later expelled by the management for allegedly criticising the governor.
The expelled student had through his lawyer, Inebehe Effiong, sent a pre-action notice to the Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof Nse Essien, seeking his reinstatement, among others.
A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Ekerette Udoh, on Wednesday exonerated Emmanuel, who is the visitor to institution, from the action taken by the university’s management.
