It was earlier reported that a student Jane Ihuoma-Ottah was
expelled from Rivers State University of Science and Technology because
she can't speak and hear. The girl, however, has filed a N20 Million
suit against the university for expelling her. According Edeson
Online News checks, Ihuoma wasn’t born deaf, the deformity started when
she was just 6 years. Ohuoma is a very brilliant student. Despite her
predicament, she made her WAEC at one sitting, was admitted to Rivers
State University. She wants to be a lecturer in future but now the
university want to cut off her dreams.
She prays the court rules in favour of her so she can continue her university education.

*deaf
and dumB. the question is, Did she disclose her deformity during the
admission process? did she declare it on her JAMB form?

@Ayokunle:
it is her right to education whether she disclosed her challenges or
not. If she can still make good grades with her condition, i see no
reason why the university should expel her. it's discrimination

This Is Purely Abusing Of Humanright, It Must Be Treated With All Seriousness

It
remains an offence to lie and falsify records. How does a deaf person
expect to learn in a university where lectures DICTATE notes and expect
verbal discussions in the class? let's be reasonable

If
she didn't disclose her predicament, she obviously can't win... This is
usually a space for less privileges when filling admission forms... So
if she's right, goodluck, I will personally fight for her course, if
not.... Then my hands are tied...

I
agree with Ayo... it's wrong of her not to have disclosed the true
state of her well-being... I'm sure if she had done that, the Uni would
have denied her the so called admission instead of going tru with it
only to later expel her.... fine what the school authority did seem
wrong... but we shouldn't just look at just the surface of dis matter..
there's need for one to go deeper into it... so as not to seem partial
in one's judgement...

that no university without student, the lectures are happy @ students
