University of Benin Closed Down Over Boko Haram


This Vice Chancellor of the University of Benin has ordered the immediate closure and evacuation of the institution.  This move is because an Islamic young man suspected to be a member of Boko Haram was arrested by men of the Nigerian Police Force. The suspect identified as Yusuf Danlandi was found with explosives along Ugbowo New Lagos road.

I heard the suspect had confessed that a 3x9 magnitude of improvised explosive device was smuggled into the University premises with the help of a Muslim faithful three days ago and was deposited in a yet to be identified hostel. The notice asking students to evacuate the premises was signed by Mrs. C.M Ojomo, the institution's acting Registrar.
