Students’ claims of an impending arrest, according to the school’s public relations officer, Mrs. Adejoke Akinpelu, were nothing more than student propaganda.

The statement is false. This is not accurate. I stated that wasn’t true and that those students were just spreading propaganda.

The new SU executives were being sworn in at the time. Despite carrying signs, no one bothered to touch them.
