CRUTECH students Fear for life after cult killing

 

By Joseph ETTA in Calabar

Students of the Cross River State University of Technology (CRUTECH) where a final year student of Education was matcheted and killed last week Thursday at the campus are now living in fear and the entire atmosphere in the campus is enveloped in high tension.

Worry is written on the faces of the students with fear of who is next?”

When Daybreak visited the Ekpo Abasi, Calabar campus  – the campus was like a Ghost town, deserted and calmed as a result of the Thursday killing, the week-long student’s week was called off, the caravan show slated for Friday did not take place.

When Daybreak sought audience with the public relations officer of the school, who refused to allowed his name on print,  he stated  that “the authority has given instruction to us not to speak to the press until the school authority issues the official report on the killing incidence.”

When asked when that is expected, He answered “the chief security officer of the school is preparing the report, even if you go to the Vice Chancellor now, she will not talk to you.”

An insider however told Daybreak that the woman is overwhelmed with the high incidence of killings and cult activities in the school.

“A woman is not fit to be the Vice Chancellor of this volatile school, the challenges in the school is too enormous for a woman to handled”. The source said.

Meanwhile, the president of the student union government, Ogbe James and a female student who were hit by stray bullets on the day of the incidence are all responding to treatment.

But when Daybreak called his two telephone lines to get his reaction on the killing incidence, he refused to pick his calls.
