The management of NSUK Senate Lifts Rustication Order on 8 Students As Gov. Sule Intervenes

The Senate of Nasarawa State University, Keffi, at its 128th Regular Meeting held on Thursday 24th April, 2025 considered the request of the Visitor to the University, Engr. Abdullahi A. Sule, FNSE, FNMGS, that the Senate of the University should temper justice with mercy and consider the need to recall the students who were rusticated for One (1) Academic Session for their involvement in the SUG Election crisis to enable them continue their academic pursuit.

This appeal was reiterated by the Visitor during his speech at the 4th Stakeholders Meeting held on Tuesday 22nd April 2025.

The rusticated students are; Yunusa Baduku, Faith Gimba, Sani Sunday Ason, David Batholomew, and Yohanna Abeson Joshua.

Others are, Isaac Ewa Musa, Abdulrahman Anas, and Yakubu Precious.

Consequently, Senate in consideration of the Visitor’s appeal has directed that the penalty of rustication for One (1) Academic Session be waived with respect to the Second Semester of the 2024/2025 in view of the fact that the affected students had already missed the First Semester.

Senate, however notes that the earlier directives communicated to the students still stands;

That they are to resume in company of their parents/guardians with a letter of undertaking to the Vice-Chancellor promising to be of good behaviour throughout their studentship.

That upon resumption, they are to report to the Directorate of Guidance & Counselling Unit for Counselling on Character reformation.
