The Spokesperson of the Micheal Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike (MOUAU) has debunked viral video of alleged molestation of one of its student as mere publicity stunt.
In an interview with the head of the school’s public relations, Mrs Adanma Odefa, she informed AFN reporters that the incident was a stunt by a fellowship called RYTHM-5 which attracted the attention of the schools security operatives who swung into action with the intention of stopping the act without realizing it’s true purpose. However, the interference fid not stop students passing bye from posting only a half version of the video, making it look real.
In the video, it was assumed that a student of Michael Okpara University Of Agriculture molested a girl because he gave her 20,000 naira and when what he expected from the girl was not met, it resulted in a fight.
Reporters of AFN for the reasons of searching out the real information about the situation, embarked on an investigation in the University, with some students responding with mixed feelings about the situation while most others stated that it was a stunt.
However, efforts made to reach out to the two students where abortive. The Student Union Government President, Ewa Austine assured our reporters that the two students will be made available to AFN for their account of what transpired.
