UNN student Mirabel Obi threatened for twerking

A panel has been set up by the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) to probe the viral video of its student Mirabel Obi, twerking in a hostel in the institution half-naked.

The varsity’s spokesman Okwun Omeaku in a statement on Tuesday said the panel would probe the circumstances surrounding the incident, adding that further action would be taken as guided by the panel’s report.

“The management of UNN, as a result of a recent viral video in social media, involving un-clad female student twerking in front of Akapbio hostel, has set up a panel to investigate circumstances surrounding the video.

“Further action to be taken by the university on the issue will be guided by the findings and reports of the panel,” he said.

Mr Omeaku confirmed the student is a freshman in the Department of Medical Laboratory Science but held back her name.

He urged the general public to disregard report in some sections of the media that the university management had suspended or expelled the affected student.

“We urge the general public to disregard reports that the affected student had been suspended or expelled.

“The public should also ignore any comment suggesting a pre-determined punishment for the student, as she will be given fair hearing by the panel,” he said.

The spokesman, however, added that the university would not condone acts of indecency and other morally reprehensible behaviours from its students.

“UNN degrees and certificates are awarded only to those who have been found worthy, both in character and in learning,” Omeaku said.
