Prof. Cyril Ndifon, The Dean Of Faculty Of Law, University Of Calabar, accused of sexually assaulting a 400L student in his office yesterday has been suspended by the panel instituted by the Vice Chancellor, Prof Ivara Esu.
Prof Ndifon is the first Law Professor from Cross River State, he was briefly arrested then released by the police before he was suspended before he was suspended by the panel set up to investigate him.
It was the victim's mother, Mrs. Irene Akpan that sent a letter to the University alleging that the incident happened between 3 and 5pm of August 29 at the Dean's private office at the top floor of the building.
Narrating her daughter's ordeal, Mrs Akpan explained that the dean had set an hour test on that day, assigning two lecturers to supervise.
She said that 20 minutes later the Dean entered stating that the students should stop writing.
Mrs.
Akpan said: “He walked straight to my daughter’s desk, collected the
script and tore it. He left the torn script on her seat, so the girl
collected the pieces and put them in her bag. According to her, you will
still have to pass through the faculty before leaving the building.
“She said as they were leaving, the dean accosted her again and asked if she still had the shredded script, she said yes. He instructed her to follow him to the general dean’s office to recopy the answers on another plain sheet, which she did.”
“The unsuspecting girl followed him to the general office where two people were, including the dean’s secretary. The office of the dean is on the first floor of the building, according to my daughter.
“She said while writing in that office, the dean who had earlier gone out, came in again and instructed her to follow him to his private office on the second floor so that she could comfortably use the table.”
