4 Months Later, No Sanctions in AE-FUNAI Extortion Case

In April 2024, Asiwaju Media reported on the alleged extortion of students. The accused was a lecturer in the Department of Mass communication, Alex Ekwueme Federal University Ndufu-Alike (AE-FUNAI), Mr. Oscar Chima and the subsequent investigation launched by the university.
But, four months after the investigation began, the university is yet to take disciplinary action against the accused lecturer.
Asiwaju Media followed up with the university’s (AE-FUNAI) Public Relations Officer, Elom Ubochi Iyke. They asked for an update on the status of the investigation.
They also inquired about when the university expects to make its findings public.
Ubochi explained that “disciplinary action in a public institution follows a process. From investigation, then to the Disciplinary Committee, if there is any culpability. It is after the Disciplinary Committee submits its findings and recommendations that the university management can apply the rule.”
He added that “if these processes are not followed, the university can easily be sued. The case is still on. At least an accused has a right to defend himself while the accuser also has to prove his own case.”
Ubochi assured that “this management is doing everything to rid the university of corrupt characters. It must follow due process.”
The university’s commitment to following due process is commendable. However, students and stakeholders are growing impatient. They are hoping for a swift resolution to the matter.
Asiwaju Media will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as more information becomes available.
