The university management in a letter dated August 17, 2023 and signed by the Registrar, Gabriel Egbe, said the suspension takes effect immediately.
,,,,,,,Ndifon was suspended after the school management was dissatisfied with his response to a query issued to him.
“Please refer to our letter Ref UC/REG/DISC.45A dated August 14, 2023 on your alleged violation of the provisions of the extant laws and policies of the University and your response to the said letter which was dated 16th August, 2023.
“The Vice-Chancellor has gone through your written representations and is not satisfied with your explanations. She has therefore directed that you should be relieved of…..your position as Dean, Faculty of Law and placed on suspension while the matter is referred to a panel that will be set-up to investigate these allegations.
“The relief of position as Dean, Faculty of Law and suspension from official duties takes effect from August 17, 2023. You are to hand over all University property in your possession including all…..official responsibilities presently handled by you to the Sub-Dean of the Faculty before vacating office.
“You are to stay away from the University premises except while responding to an invitation from the panel investigating these allegations,” the letter read.
On Wednesday it was reported that a professor in the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, SinemAbasi Ekong, narrated how Prof. Ndifon allegedly raped her 20-year-old daughter in his office.
Prof. Ekong said Ndifon tore her daughter’s answer script during a test and subsequently used that to trick her daughter to go to his office, where he allegedly raped her twice.
Monday it was reported that female students of the faculty of law at the University of Calabar demanded the immediate removal of their dean, Ndifon for allegedly sexually harassing them.
,,,,,,The protest was seen in a viral video on X, formerly known as Twitter which shows the moment the predominantly female students, clad in their traditional white and black attire, protested in the school.
