Alleged S3xual Harassment: UNICAL Suspends Prof Cyril Ndifon

According to the letter, the suspension came on the heels of Ndifon’s response to a query earlier issued to him by the University management.

 
The University of Calabar has suspended Prof Cyril Ndifon over alleged s3xual harassment of female students.
 
His suspension was contained in a letter dated August 17, 2023, and signed by the institution’s registrar, Gabriel Egbe.
 
The letter said Ndifon was suspended for violation of the provisions of the extant laws and policies of the institution.
 
Back in 2015, he was arrested, detained, and suspended by the same university over accusations of s3xually assaulting female students.
 
A few days ago, female law students carried placards and protested on campus, calling for the removal of Ndifon.
 
Some of the placards had inscriptions such as, “Ndifon must go!” “We’re tired of sucking dicks for marks”, “Law girls are not bonanza,” and “Prof Ndifon must stop grabbing our bum bums.”
 
According to the letter, the suspension came on the heels of Ndifon’s response to a query earlier issued to him by the University management.
 
The Vice Chancellor was said to be dissatisfied with Prof. Ndifon’s response to the query issued to him.
 
As a result, the VC directed that Ndifon be relieved of his position as Dean and placed on suspension.
 
The authorities referred the matter to a panel that will be set up to investigate the allegations levelled against him.
 
Part of the letter reads: “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 relieving of position as Dean, Faculty of Law, and suspension from official duties take 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 invitations from the panel investigating these allegations.”
 
In an earlier interview granted to journalists, Ndifon had vehemently denied the allegations, claiming that the so-called protest by the law students was masterminded by some persons in the faculty who had sworn to pull him down.
 
Ndifon claimed that the allegations from the students were barefaced lies aimed at tarnishing his image.
 
“Since I defeated some persons in an election that was keenly contested to emerge as Dean of the Faculty, it hasn’t been easy. I had skipped several booby traps.
 
“These allegations are baseless and masterminded by my detractors, who had vowed to ensure that my image is dragged through the mud just because I won the faculty elections twice.
 
“If you look at the placards, you will discover that the placards have one person’s handwriting. Again, how come the protesters know that we were going to hold a meeting with the Vice Chancellor if it is not the handiwork of an insider?”
 
Ndifon alleged that the LAWSAN president had cajoled some students to go for the said meeting with the Vice Chancellor at her office, only to dish out placards bearing false representations about the Dean and ask his colleagues to chant slogans that berated my personality.
 
“This won’t work. Colleagues of mine who are bent on tarnishing my reputation just to destroy me. The question is, where are the victims of s3xual harassment?”
