UNILORIN expels 400-level student who beat lecturer to coma

The University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) has expelled Salaudeen Waliu Aanuoluwa with the matriculation number 17/55EJ198 from the school after he allegedly assaulted a lecturer.

The decision was reached after he was brought before the institution’s students’ disciplinary committee on Monday, 15th November 2021. The university authority after its decision handed him over to the police for further actions.

Recall that the 400-Level student, popularly identified as Captain Walz, beat up a lecturer, Mrs Zakariyyah, to stupor after an altercation on his academics.

Salaudeen, while speaking to University Campus Journalists, UCJ-Ilorin, on the issue on Thursday said “months before the last Thursday incident, he was arrested and locked up for two months, thereby warranting his inability to attend SIWES duties.”

He claimed to have gone to the office of the female lecturer to beg her to help wave the mandatory SIWES course which he missed due to unforeseen circumstances but was always met with negative responses.

According to him, he had gone to Lagos to meet a friend for the first time but was accused of being a thief and locked up by the police which led to his detention for two months.

The 400-level student noted as he went on to narrate his ugly Lagos incident to Mrs Zakariyau, claimed that she refused to give him some grace, saying he had no option but to join the next set which would result in an extra year.

He said on the fateful Thursday when he entered the lecturer’s office, she ordered him out of her office.

“I got angry, I don’t know what came over me, I started arguing and she told me to leave her office, I told her if I don’t leave, what is she going to do? She then threw a mug at me which injured me and I started beating her,” he said.

Salaudeen said the female lecturer did not fight back, so he went on to beat her and later dragged her out of her office to continue the beating.

“I dragged her out and she ran. I chased and kept beating her before people came. I tried to run but was later caught by the school security,” he stated.
