The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Calabar (UNICAL), Prof. Florence Obi, has suspended a female student of the Faculty of Law of the institution over alleged theft of iPhone XS.

The suspension was conveyed in a letter signed on Tuesday in Calabar by the university’s Registrar, Mr Gabriel Egbe, and addressed to the student.

According to the letter, the suspension came on the heels of a report received by the Vice-Chancellor on Nov. 23, that the student sneaked into Room 102 of the female hostel and took away the iPhone.

The letter further stated that the said student eventually owned up to the offence after an initial denial and thereafter produced the phone from her residence in Calabar Municipality.
