Four students at Confluence University of Science and Technology, Osara, in Kogi State, have been expelled for various offences, including alleged lesbianism, physical assault, and cyber misconduct. The disciplinary actions were confirmed following the 30th Regular Senate Meeting held on April 29, 2025, where the university's Students' Disciplinary Committee presented its findings. Two female students, Ezekiel Precious Omeneke and Aku Joy Chinyere, both 200-level undergraduates in Economics and Accounting respectively, were expelled over allegations of lesbianism. Musa Abdulhakeem Onimisi, a 200-level Petroleum and Gas Engineering student, was expelled for allegedly assaulting and stabbing another student. Dominion Kolade A., a 200-level Physiotherapy student, was also expelled for cloning and distributing photographs of two female students without consent. Agbakaru Kosikochukwu, a 200-level Radiography student, was rusticated for one academic session for fighting and physical assault. The sanctions were communicated through letters signed by Eli Gbadafu, Deputy Registrar, Academic Affairs. University management stated the decisions reflect its commitment to maintaining discipline, moral standards, and a secure academic environment. Vice-Chancellor Prof. Abdulrahman Asipita Salawu praised the disciplinary committee for its fair and thorough investigation. He emphasized the institution's goal of producing graduates known for both academic excellence and strong character. Students were warned that violations of university rules would attract sanctions without exception.
Students found guilty of misconduct, including cyber offences and physical assault, now face expulsion or rustication at Confluence University. Affected students and parents must review the university's code of conduct and ensure strict adherence to avoid irreversible academic consequences.
