A 400-level History and International Relations student of Abia State University died during a cult clash over the weekend.

Naija News learnt that the Abia State Government confirmed the death on Monday, after the week’s State Executive Council meeting chaired by the state governor, Alex Otti.

Briefing journalists,  the Commissioner for Information and Culture, Okey Kanu, said the state government has dispatched some security agencies to the institution to restore normalcy.

He further advised students to refrain from violence and face their studies.

He said, “It has come to the notice of the state government about skirmishes in Abia State University, Uturu, between student groups where a student lost his life.

“Some remedial actions have been taken to return normalcy (in the institution). The state government has dispatched some security agencies to Abia State University Uturu.”

According to PUNCH, tensions are high at the school following the renewed outbreak of violence between the two rival cult groups, which left the 400-level student dead.

Eyewitnesses said that members of a rival group attacked the victim within the university area, which led to his death.

While the school authorities are yet to issue a statement on the incident, the state Commissioner of Police, Kenechukwu Onwumelie, said the police are aware of the matter and are investigating the incident.

The National Industrial Court in Abuja has reinstated Tajudeen Baruwa as the re-elected president of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), effectively dissolving the Tajudeen Agbede-led Caretaker Committee.

The decision comes as a resolution to the protracted leadership dispute within the union, with Justice O. O. Oyewumi presiding over the case.

Justice Oyewumi’s verdict confirmed the validity of the delegates’ conference held across the union’s six zonal councils on May 24, 2023, where Baruwa was re-elected for a second term.

The court also validated the Quadrennial National Delegates Conference that took place on August 23, 2023, at Ta’al Hotels in Lafia, Nasarawa State, inaugurating Baruwa and other national officers.

The judgment further restrained Najeem Yasin, the former President and current Board of Trustees chairman, from intervening in the union’s daily operations, clarifying that Yasin’s role should be limited to acting as the board’s chairman.

In a critical aspect of the ruling, Justice Oyewumi declared the national delegates’ conference held on October 25, 2023, which purportedly saw Isa Ore and his National Administrative Council take office, to be illegal, null, and unconstitutional.

The judge noted the lack of evidence pointing to a crisis within the union that would justify the ‘doctrine of necessity’ invoked for establishing the caretaker committee.

She ruled, “The National Delegates conference held on October 25, 2024, cannot stand and therefore declare null and void.

“Alhaji Najeem Usman Yasin is also restrained from interfering in the day-to-day running of the affairs of the union. Though he can act as Chairman of the board of trustees of the union.”
