COVENANT UNIVERSITY EXPELS OVER 160 STUDENTS FOR NOT ATTENDING CHURCH SERVICE

About 160 students have been expelled from Covenant University, Cannanland, Ota, Ogun State by the authorities of the school. Cannanland, Ota, Ogun State, recently for what was described as “disregard of paramount core values.” 

I just called my very close friend's brother who is in Covenant to confirm and he said it's true. According to him, during their departure service, meant to sign off from the school after the end of the Semester and Matriculation of students on November 30, some students were sitting outside gisting and loitering around but unknown to them 'Papa' as they call Bishop Oyedepo, was on his way to the service. 

 Expelling students for not attending a service after paying such high sums in school fees? How many of you agree with me that that's too extreme a  punishment for not attending a service. I've heard that David Oyedepo is very quick to anger and sometimes curse the students.Continue to read after the cut...


He said on seeing the students loitering outside, he became very upset seeing the students outside when they were supposed to be in the Chapel for the departure service, and  started slapping some of them, then locked the doors of the Chapel where the service was going on. He (Papa) then ordered that all the halls be searched for students who were not in the service. About 160 of them were found and expelled. Also, two students were expelled for smoking indian hemp within the school premises.

A letter of expulsion signed by the Registrar, Ntia Ubong, a copy which was made available to Saturday Vanguard stated that the affected students contravened Chapter 1, section 30, page 40 of the 2010-2014 Student Handbook.
