The management of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, has banned all social activities on campus that extend beyond 6:00 p.m.
A statement by the school said it became necessary due to the unfortunate incident that happened in UNN on September 12.
A businessman identified as Chiebonam Nweze, aka Power-Autos, was said to have been stabbed to death.
Mr. Nweze was a guest at a bonfire night organised by the students’ association of the Department of Archaeology and Heritage Studies at UNN.
”Henceforth, the UNN management has directed that all such activities must be held strictly during the daytime and under the supervision of the University Security Unit. Social events of any kind will not be permitted on our campuses beyond 6:00 p.m. henceforth,” the management said.
The management said that it was unfortunate that the bonfire event was hijacked by miscreants from a neighbouring community, who instigated violence.
The management assured the public that UNN remains fully committed to ensuring a safe and secure environment for all members of its community and would continue to take every necessary measure to prevent a recurrence of such an incident.
