RSU Has Zero Tolerance For Indiscipline, Cultism-SUG
President of Students’ Union Government (SUG), Rivers State University (RSU), Nkpolu, Port Harcourt, Comrade Precious Pepple, has said that there is no form of immorality or indiscipline at the institution under the watch of the Acting Vice Chancellor, Prof. Opuenebo Binya.
Speaking with The Tide in Port Harcourt yesterday, Pepple added that no cultism was found within the walls of the ivory tower and stressed that the university had made discipline under the leadership of the Vice Chancellor its watchword among staff and students.
According to him, “Here in Rivers State University (RSU), there is zero tolerance in operation against homosexuality and lesbianism. There is no room for corruption among lecturers, non-academic staff and students. We want to sanitize the university and make it a place of sound academic learning, where cultism, corruption and immorality will not be condoned”.
In his words, “The present leadership in the institution has finally waged war against such abnormalities that had dragged the good image of the school and its founding fathers to the mud. It is certain that the administration of Prof. Binya is ready to fish out all those perpetrating evil practices on campus for prosecution”.
He averred: “One must have to endure suffering on campus to gain the fullness of God’s blessing by graduating in a flying colour in as much as the students utilized their talents in their studies for greater results”.
Pepple, a 300-level Electrical Engineering student of the university, said “perseverance comes before success” and therefore, students should stick to their studies, while shunning anti-social vices, such as, cultism, kidnapping, armed robbery, prostitution and other obnoxious characters that might send them packing from their future hope.
He used the opportunity to commend Governor Nyesom Wike for his sterling leadership track records within the past four and half years, especially the provision of conducive environment and infrastructure for learning, describing him as “ a development field marshal of the 21st Century”.
The SUG boss further called on the governer not to rest in his oars but to provide more infrastructure in the school. He noted that the university was deeply grateful to God for using Chief Wike to take the institution to a greater pedestal.
