In a strange development, after an alleged juju fear, Ambrose Alli University (AAU) in Ekpoma, Edo State, shuttered the alternate entry to the pro-chancellor and vice chancellor offices in the administrative building.
According to university sources who spoke to Standarddailypress.com, the closure is related to ongoing disagreements over the selection of key officials, such as a substantive vice chancellor.
Despite acknowledging the shutdown, the university administration gave the excuse of “administrative reasons/security alert” without specifically mentioning the purported juju event.
Within the academic community, there are rumours that the offices were desecrated, which is why they were abruptly shut down. Staff and students are left wondering how this development may affect administrative and academic operations.
No formal statement explaining the matter has been released by the university’s public relations office.
As events develop, worries about how the issue may affect the institution’s operations and reputation only intensify. Members of the university community are extremely speculative and anxious about this development, and many are demanding clarification and a resolution.
