The University Of Port Harcourt has refused to let its 2016 set of graduates go...It is a sad story.....Please read and help spread this to anyone who can mediate ad broke a settlement.............#sad
According to the story,University of Port Harcourt Students ranging to over 1227 who graduated in 2016, had their names approved in the the graduating list, published in the convocation brochure, done and finished clearance, and most of who have been issued certificates and has their names mobilize for NYSC in 2016 were asked to come back and repeat their final year because “ They PAID their school fees for that section LATE”.
According to the affected Students...
''The school management set that impromptu policy which led to the protest and death of a final year student by name Peter Ofurum on April 11th 2016. The school was shut down for that incident for over 3 months.
The fate of the students hung in thin air as the university’s directives that they should repeat class has kept them stagnant and confused. All attempts and several appeals to the university management to reverse that policy and let them go was proved abortive as the university gave no positive response but rather kept their fates hanging for over a year.
The students resorted to approach the judiciary which they recognize as the hope of the common man.
Luckily for us, we got in contact with our lawyers who had pity and took up the legal action without charging a dime. After all court proceedings within few months, Judgment was given and delivered in our Favour( attached is a copy of the judgment given by the Judge in the federal high court ).
The judgement contained that the university should mobilize us for NYSC, writhing 14 days, refund us our monies which include another 45k we were asked to pay to validate the one they termed as been paid late and also publish apologies in 2 national dailies.
Out of respect for our alma matter we wrote to the university, through our lawyers suggesting a waiver for the refund of monies which amounts to over 65 million naira and also the apologies, For our certificates to be issued for those who haven’t been issued and also for all to be mobilized for NYSC.
The management of the school through their lawyers agreed to negocaite with us to that effect but since nov. 21, 2018 when the judgment was given till now, the university and its lawyers has kept on posting the process as a deliberate attempt to further aggravate things by delaying us more. We were even more shocked that the university has gone ahead to appeal the case at the appeal. It’s now 3 years since we graduated and our fate still hanging yet to be decided at the appeal.
We wish to bring again to notice of the general public, the gross violation of the rule of law, administrative rascality and adjunct mis-conduct been perpetrated by the megalomaniac management of the university led by the vice chancellor.
Attached is the judgment and judgment orders and other relevant docs to verify our claims...The names of the plaintiffs withheld for security reasons''
