The management of the University of Calabar has initiated a probe into allegations of sexual harassment levelled against the Dean of the Faculty of Law, Prof. Cyril Ndifon.

Recall that some law students had embarked on a protest, holding up placards that read “Ndifon must go for our sanity”, “We are tired of buying law journals”, “We are tired of lecturers not attending classes”, and “Law girls are not your bonanza; Prof. Ndifon should stop grabbing us and others.”

While Ndifon denied the allegation, the university’s spokesperson, Eyo Bassey, said the school’s management has met with the aggrieved parties.

He told newsmen; “They were invited by the vice-chancellor. The staffers of the Faculty of Law were invited to come and address management as well as their senior faculty staff about whatever might have been their complaints.

“They spoke and raised a lot of issues. It is not even just about sexual allegations. There are all kinds of other issues they raised and management commended them for bringing the issues to their attention.”
