Katsina university expels 57 students over exam malpractice

The Senate of Umaru Musa Yar’adua University (UMYU), Katsina, has expelled 57 students for their involvement in various forms of examination malpractice.

 

The decision was announced in a statement released by the university management and signed by Hajiya Fatima Sanda, the institution’s Head of Information and Protocol, on Saturday, August 2, in Katsina.

 

According to the statement, the action followed recommendations from the University Central Examination Misconduct Committee (UCEMC) and was ratified during the Senate’s 125th Regular Meeting. The committee had conducted investigations into reported infractions across several faculties before reaching its conclusions.

 

The statement also disclosed that five additional students were rusticated for two semesters (2024/2025 session), with their affected examination papers cancelled.

 

Two other students received official written warnings, which will now remain permanently on their academic records. In the statement, UMYU stressed that the disciplinary actions are in line with its firm stance on academic integrity. 

 

“UMYU remains committed to preserving the sanctity of its academic standards and will not hesitate to sanction any act that undermines the integrity of its examinations.

 

“Students have been urged to adhere strictly to academic rules and avoid any form of malpractice, as future violations will be met with equally strict consequences,” the statement said.
