ABIA STATE GOVERNMENT RAISES ALARM OVER PLANNED ABSU RELOCATION PROTEST

The attention of the Abia State Government has been drawn to illegal plans being made by some evil minded individuals and disgruntled politicians to mobilize some youths of Uturu and neighbouring communities to embark on protest against the good decision of the State Government to relocate the faculties of law, business and Engineering, to the Umuahia and Aba campuses of the Abia State University, ABSU.

The decision which has been applauded by sound Educationists and very eminent citizens, is for the general growth, progress and advancement of the Abia State University.

Therefore Government will not tolerate any wrong moves by any person or group to sabotage genuine efforts towards the enhancement of even development in the University or any other corporate institution owned by Abians.

The Nigerian Police Force and other Security Agencies are hereby directed to arrest and prosecute any person or group of persons trying to ferment crisis within or around the Abia State University Uturu and in any other part of the State.

Traditional rulers and Parents are advised to caution and control their children. This Government will not spare anyone who attempts to tamper with the On-going peaceful atmosphere in Abia State.

Signed by,
Comrade Bonnie Iwuoha,
Hon. Commissioner for Information,
Culture and Strategy.
