University, Prof. Debo Adeyemo, says Tolani Ajayi was facing the institution's Disciplinary Committee before the incident.
Commenting on the incident, Adeyemo told PUNCH Metro that the student had been facing the disciplinary committee before he committed the murder. His offences, however, were not revealed to PUNCH Metro "to avoid compounding the grief of the affected family."
"We have committees who counsel and discipline erring students. We do not hesitate to take the necessary actions against any student found wanting after verifications. We also partner with
organisations who help in rehabilitating those that are on drugs. A lot of them have been
rehabilitated and become better persons in the society. I can tell you the young man has been under disciplinary committee before the incident but we cannot reveal his allegations for now for the sake of the family who are in pains.
"As part of our efforts, a programme, 'Parenting of life' was held last month to sensitize parents
on to the best way to raise children.
We train our students for a total personality in terms of humility and spirituality.
"Thirty per cent of the staff contribute regularly to assist students that are financially challenged," the VC said.
He then cautioned the media to be more investigative in their reporting as the school authority was not contacted before the news broke.
"We frown on the way the media went into publication without verification from the school.
It was by chance that the incident happened on campus. If the father does not have a house here, it would have happened outside the school because the school is on holiday," he said.
