A civil society group, Sacred hearts gender protection initiative has described the reinstatement of Dr Cyril Ndifon and his subsequent reinstatement as Dean, faculty of law in the university of Calabar as a hidden injustice.
In a letter addressed to the VC made available to our correspondent, the group said it was taking up the issue at this time as part of it’s activities to mark 16 days of activism to end gender based violence.
The letter signed by the executive director of the group, Roseline Nwafor PhD says the ICPC is in court over a case of alleged rape by Dr Ndifon of a female law student in 2015 which led to his suspension. They therefore frowned at his reinstatement and reapportionment given that judgement on the case by the court of appeal is pending.
“Arising from the above, we therefore find it hard to understand the basis for which Ndifon who is under investigation for sexual assault against a female law student was reinstated as a staff of the university and made dean of the law faculty “.
The group further said the group along with other civil society groups involved in SGBV advocacy would take to the streets in the FCT as well as march to international organizations and embassies to “call the University management to order”.
