“It obvious that UNIZIK decision on this matter is based on societal pressure and it so bad…
“I can bet it with you, to Assemble all the UNIZIK students and do research on them about rules and regulations of their school, you will be surprised that 98% of the students doesn’t know their school policy, rules and punishment attached to misconducts.
“There you will spot if these pupils were taken on orientation before they were enrolled in theirs various area of discipline.
“That’s why I love imo state university, students are always in cordial relationship with lecturers, and such situation is not big for any lecturer in imo state university, Even a new employed lecturer to handle insurmountably.

“Before you come after me, mind you, I am not in support of the girl behaviour towards the lecturer, I will never be in support of her bad attitude. I only stand firm in objectivity.
“The expulsion on the girl is very unfair punishment.
“Because, isn’t about the child, but her parents. If a child will be expulse for fighting lecturer, she wasn’t suspended or given another punishment, it means that parents can do better than educational institution. And we must not worry to send our kids to school while we can do better than them.
“Honestly, If I must be the father of that child, I will sue the school authority and management for unfair decision on my child. But Problem here is, we are primitive to know and fight our right.”

“Secondly, the lecture was the one that went back to the girl and requested that she delete the video from her phone. The phone she was using for the video was not the school property.
“And I think that the fight started when the lecture tried to take the phone by force from the student.
“She has no single reasons to fight the lecture, I think suspension is appropriate here but not expulsion.”
