| Protesters Umuahia – Friday, scores of women from the five South-East states of Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo, were stopped by the Abia State police command from protesting in Umuahia, the state capital, against the controversial gang-rape alleged to have taken place at the state university, Uturu. |
This happened on a day Abia State police command promised to reward any person with information that could lead to the arrest of the perpetrators or identification of the rape victim with N500,000.
A statement by the command’s spokesman, ASP Geoffrey Ogbonna, said: “The command in its usual manner of protecting informants’ identity, assures utmost secrecy in this regard while a handsome reward of N500,000 awaits any one with useful information.”
The women, who came into Umuahia with two big buses, were stopped close to Government House by the Divisional Police Officer of Umuahia and diverted to the Central Police Station.
The Uturu University websites states, "we are building a brand and leaders of our generation here, dedicated to the advanced teaching of our subject matter with a particular orientation towards 'critical empowerment studies'.
If the pursuit of knowledge feels like a walk in the park then you probably aren't trying hard enough. We think a university should be about empowering people to explore what they don?t know; through passionate, dedicated teaching and innovative, world-changing research." Yet the university officials are not doing much to investigate this matter.
