The Police in Ugbowo, Edo State, have arrested a staff of the Chemistry Department of University of Benin, UNIBEN, who allegedly forged the letter headed paper of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, and signature of the Chairman of ASUU, UNIBEN chapter, Dr. Anthony Monye-Emina.
Meanwhile, there was pandemonium last Friday at the office of the Vice Chancellor of UNIBEN, Prof.Osayuki Oshodin, after a woman evaded security and allegedly assaulted him in his office.
Afric TV learnt that the VC was walking to his waiting room to meet with some visitors when the woman, said to have been sacked by the university authority for alleged misconduct, held him by his trousers, screaming that she should be reinstated.
The VC, who reacted to the incident, said: “I was shocked because she would have shot me dead if she had a gun. She would have also blown up everybody around if she was a suicide bomber. I was shocked how she came into my office, though the management is investigating the matter now.”
On the suspect arrested for forging the signature of UNIBEN Chairman of ASUU and the letter head of the union, Afric TV learnt that the police had been on his trail for over a month, though he was arrested Saturday.
He was alleged to have used the letter headed paper to write a petition to the Minister of Education, where he alleged that Prof.Oshodin was no longer fit to man the affairs of the university due to ill health, therefore an acting VC should be appointed.
