Suspended Auchi Poly student leader apologises to management

The student union leader said he was used by external forces to disrupt academic activities in the polytechnic.
The suspended Student Union Government (SUG) leader at the Federal Polytechnic Auchi, Unareloukpia Patrick has tendered apology to the polytechnic management for bringing down the reputation of the school.
Patrick who was suspended in November 2017 alongside two other union members said they were used by some disgruntled elements to disrupt academic activities at the institution. He therefore, begged the polytechnic’s acting rector for forgiveness saying, “We are all human and therefore susceptible to manipulations by external forces at one time or the other. And as human too, our consciences do tell us that indeed, enough is enough. This is exactly my case in the whole events that have been going on in Auchi Polytechnic.’’
Patrick who was the Speaker of the Student Union Government (SUG) before his suspension said some student leaders were paid to organise a series of protests and to cast aspersion and discredit the acting rector of the institution, Dr. Sanusi Jimah.
“I want to let the general public know that I have never and can never be part of those who want to perpetuate evil in the name of Aluta struggle to disrupt the peaceful running of Auchi Polytechnic.
“I hereby apologise to the management of Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi, ably led by the amiable and dynamic acting rector, Dr. Momodu Sanusi Jimah, to please forgive me.
“And also to make it known that I am ready to come out plain to defend my actions if called upon to do so,” he said.
