The Management of Ambrose Alli University (AAU) Ekpoma, Edo State has denied a tiktok video currently trending on social media about one Pascal, alleged self-confessed cultist who claimed to be a student of the institution paraded by the Nigeria Police Force.

In a statement signed by the Head, Corporate Communications, Ambrose Alli University, (AAU) Ekpoma, Otunba Mike Ade Aladenika, stated that the said Pascal does not have any record of studentship with the Institution.

The statement read in part: “The attention of the Management of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, Edo State, Nigeria, has been drawn to a tiktok video currently trending on Social Media about one Pascal who claimed to be a student of our great institution and an alleged self-confessed cultist paraded by the police.

“For as much as we can categorically check and confirm that the video is not a recent playback, it also suffices to say that his studentship of AAUE is doubtful and succinctly non-existent as all attempts to trace the said name in all our faculty and departmental records (both past and present)  were negative.

“It is a statement of fact that Ambrose Alli University, (AAU) Ekpoma, has a zero tolerance for cult-related and unholy activities of students as all our students are under obligation and oaths to abstain from such misdemeanor.

“Cultism runs counter to our rules and guiding principles of studentship of this institution. We, therefore, enjoin the general public to disregard whatever link or nexus the paraded suspect may have professed as it is nothing but lies from the pit of hell.

“We are also using the medium to allay whatever fear that may be haboured by current or intending students, parents and the general public that our university has grown beyond the activities of criminal minded youths and that our University and College Campuses are safe haven for learning.”
