Kwara State University Expels 28 Students for various offences

At least twenty eight students have again been expelled from the Kwara
State University for contravening various offences against the
institution's rules and regulations. The students according to the
Deputy Registrar, Mr. Shuaib A. Mohammed, were expelled for
miscellaneous offences including examination malpractice, theft,
engagement in physical combat with fellow students, possession of
dangerous weapons and membership of unregistered association(s).
The deputy registrar, who spoke with newsmen in his office at Malete,
the permanent site of the university said "some of them were expelled
for exam malpractice. Some were involved in the act of misconduct,
while some belonged to an unregistered association. For example, there
was a case of a boy who used knife to fight and injure his fellow
students. There was another case of three boys who were caught around
1am holding a meeting in the bush. They were caught and throughout the
panel session, they failed to disclose other members' identities. So
we had to expel them.

He said some students' cases are still pending and that if the
investigation team finds them guilty of offences for which they were
alleged, they would eventually be expelled too.
