Assault On Female Lecturer: Dad Of Expelled UNILORIN Student Breaks Silence
EKO HOT BLOG reports that Mr Anuoluwa Salaudeen, father of Waliyullah, the expelled 400-level microbiology student of the University of Ilorin (Unilorin), has broken his silence over the saga.
He disclosed this while speaking with BBC Yoruba.
While speaking, hesaid his son went wild and acted strangely a day before the incident.
According to the Lagos-based mechanic, Waliyullah stays with his younger brother, Farouk, a 200-level student, in one of the hostels off the university campus.
He said, “It was Farouk that called me on Wednesday saying his brother had gone wild and tore his clothes in the public. He said they were both at home and had slept nearly all day after breakfast and continued with their sleep after lunch because they both coincidentally had no class that day.

“But Farouk said Waliyullah suddenly woke up around 6pm, ran down the stairs from their hostel and started to tear his clothes in the public before other students around in the hostel chased him and dragged him back to their room.
“Farouk was shouting on the phone that I should be coming down to Ilorin at past 7pm. But I said I could not make it that night.
“So I got to their hostel around 1pm on Thursday but didn’t meet any of them. When I called his brother on phone, he said there was another development; that when he went to pray his Subhi (dawn) prayer, Waliyullah had woken up and left the hostel with his whereabouts unknown until he was called by friends that he had beaten a lecturer.”
Mr Salaudeen said he was told by Farouk that Waliyullah smoked cigarettes and not Indian hemp, adding that, “I was furious and fought him when I learnt he was also a musician.
“But he told me it would not affect his academics as a plant biology student. Prior to now, he was not a troublesome person at all, hence what is happening now is strange to me. The whole world should please come to my aid.”
Waliyullah who has since been expelled by the university over the incident was remanded on Friday by a magistrates’ court and his case adjourned to November 26th, 2021.

Terrorists release video of kidnapped palace servant in Zamfara
In a video, a servant of the Emir of Zamfara named Alhaji Buhari (Shamaki) has pleaded to the monarch to intercede in their release.
Last week, bandits raided the palace of Zurmi’s Emir, Alhaji Bello Muhammad Bunu, killing three persons and abducting some local inhabitants.
According to locals, the bandits raided the town at 10 p.m. on Wednesday and targeted the mansion of Nasarawa State’s former Military Administrator, Colonel Bala Muhammad Mande (rtd).
The Emir was, however, whisked away by the security agents to Gusau.

In the video, the abducted men were seen with eyes blocked with pieces of cloths while being surrounded by armed bandits, while one of them (Shamaki) urged the Emir to show compassion and aid in their release.
Invoking the name of Allah for mercy and support, he said they are over 600 individuals in dire need for assistance to go back and continue providing food for their families.
He said: “We are calling on the Emir of Zamfara to have sympathy for us, in the name of Allah, and help our release. In the name of Allah, the Emir should have sympathy for us.
“We are just looking for what to eat and feed their families. Even if one has nothing, waking up with something to eat and feed his family is enough. I am your Shamaki, Alhaji Buhari. Please and please, Your Highness, help us your people who are in extreme need for your help. We are over 600 in the bush.”

Appeal court takes over NURTW case as NIC withdraws
Appeal court takes over NURTW case as NIC withdraws
The National Industrial Court has withdrawn from a case involving Alhaji Najeem Usman Yasin, Board of Trustees chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), and Alhaji Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa’s ambition to return as president of the union over lack of jurisdiction.
The industrial court’s decision was made to avoid conflict with the Court of Appeal, where the matter is already being heard.
Before the NIC announced its decision to hands-off the case, the defendants’ counsel, Mr. O.I. Olorundare SAN, had informed the court that the matter is currently before the Court of Appeal, Abuja division, and that the industrial court could not continue to adjudicate on the same matter.
The counsel cited authorities to support his claim, adding that the National Industrial Court does not have concurrent jurisdiction with the Court of Appeal.
The presiding judge, O.O. Oyewunmi, struck out the case, stating that the Appeal Court had taken over the matter and that the Industrial Court must respect the hierarchy of courts.
Alhaji Yasin and six others took the case to the Appeal Court, challenging the decision of the industrial court recognising a delegates’ conference held on May 24, 2023, where Baruwa was proclaimed as President of the union for a second term in office.
With the latest NIC judgement, both parties will now proceed to defend their positions at the Court of Appeal and await the final judgement.
