UNIBEN Gives Update On Student Who Claimed She Passed Through Malpractice

The University of Benin has debunked viral claims that a recent graduate who wore a t-shirt that has the inscription, “aggressive malpractice brought me this far”, has been asked to rewrite her exams from 200 level.

Recall that she had shared a video after her final exams, where she was spotted rocking a white shirt and dancing.

On her shirt was the bold inscription; “Aggressive malpractice brought me this far”.

The video went viral and many Nigerians expressed disapproval over the inscription, and some others warned that her action may see her certificate withheld by the University.

The varsity then set up a panel on July 13 to investigate Ufuoma for alleged malpractice. The committee was given a week to submit its report to the Microbiology Head of Department.

Reports then started making rounds on Wednesday, July 21, that the committee has concluded that Ufuoma rewrites all her exams from 200 level.

But in a new development, the spokesperson for the University of Benin, Benedicta Adeola Ehanire, has stated that there is no report yet from the panel set up to investigate Peace Ufuoma, who is under probe for alleged exam malpractice.

Ehanire told SaharaReporters:-

“The current report online is fake. The University is following due process; panels have been set up to investigate her claims and the panels are yet to submit their report to the management who will consider the report.

“It is not something as straightforward as people are portraying it to be. The University is following due process.”
