The suspension, effective from August 17, 2023, was communicated through a letter signed by the University Registrar, Mr. Gabriel Egbe.
The decision to suspend Prof. Ndifon comes after his response to a prior query issued by the University Management, which failed to meet the satisfaction of the Vice Chancellor.
Subsequently, the Vice Chancellor has relieved him of his role as Dean and placed him on suspension. The matter will now be referred to a specially constituted panel tasked with investigating the allegations leveled against him.
In an official statement, the University Registrar’s letter reads: “Please refer to our letter Ref UC/REG/DISC.45A dated August 14, 2023, regarding your alleged violation of the provisions of the extant laws and policies of the University, and your response to the said letter, dated 16th August, 2023. The Vice Chancellor has gone through your written representations and is not satisfied with your explanations.”
“As a result, she has directed that you should be relieved of your position as Dean, Faculty of Law, and placed on suspension while the matter is referred to a panel that will be set up to investigate these allegations. The relief of position as Dean, Faculty of Law, and suspension from official duties take effect from August 17, 2023.
You are to hand over all University property in your possession, including all official responsibilities presently handled by you, to the Sub-Dean of the Faculty before vacating the office.”
“During this period, you are to stay away from the University premises except while responding to invitations from the panel investigating these allegations.”
The book also examines Nigeria's legal ecosystem, focusing on the LPELR and NBA AI Guidelines. As a bonus, every purchase comes with a FREE eBook titled: How to Use the AI Features in LegalPedia and LawPavilion.
Ohio Books Ltd praises the publication, stating:
"....this is the only Nigerian book I know of on the topic."
