David-Chyddy Eleke in Awka

The management of Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK), Awka, has suspended a lecturer in the Department of Chinese Studies, Prof. Ifeanyi Sunny Odinye, for three months with half salary over alleged contravention of the university’s General and Academic Regulations.

Odinye was, a week ago, stripped by suspected students of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, for allegedly attempting to take advantage of a female student who she had previously caught for involving in examination malpractice.

The professor’s suspension followed the submission of an interim report of a six-man panel set up by the university to investigate allegations arising from the incident which was captured in a now viral video.
