UNIUYO host community petitions Buhari, NUC over alleged attacks
The community hosts the University of Uyo permanent site located along Nwaniba.
Co-signed by Maurice Edet, ex-Chairman, Uyo LGA and Tony Asikpo, ex-Speaker, Uyo Legislative Assembly, they appealed to Buhari and NUC Executive Secretary, Prof. Abubakar Rasheed, to call UNIUYO authorities to order. It said by morning, people were shocked to see that “over 10 houses in the community had been demolished by agents of the University aided by armed soldiers, despite the subsisting lockdown curfew in the state”.
The people recalled that on February 15, 2015, UNIUYO management led by Prof. Enefiok Essien allegedly authorized the Chief Security Officer to storm the community.“On that fateful day, 8 buildings at various stages of completion were reduced to rubbles. Youths of our community vis entire youths of Offot Ukwa were seriously agitated but were restrained from seeking vengeance”.
