[PHOTOS] Nigerian Law School Expels Student Few Weeks To Final Bar Exams, Find Out Why
A University of Ibadan alumnus, Mr.
Kayode Bello popularly called ‘Kay
Bello’ has been expelled from the
Nigerian Law School few weeks to the
final Bar examination which comes up
on August 15, 2017, Lawyard.ng
reports.
Until the time of his expulsion, Kayode
Bello was a student of the Nigerian Law
School, Abuja campus.
The University of Ibadan graduate, who
recently concluded the compulsory
court attachment programme of the
Nigerian Law School was shown the way
out of the Bar programme after a series
of face off and encounter between him
and the management of the
institution The Page Reports.
According to one of his colleagues, who
spoke under the condition of
anonymity, trouble started for Kay Bello
in Law School when he wrote a petition
against the management of the Nigeria
Law School over what he alleged as poor
social welfare conditions.
It was stated that Kay Bello printed
fliers and sort to mobilize his colleagues
at the Abuja campus of the Nigerian Law
school to stand against the management
and demand for a better living condition
in terms of conducive classrooms and
hostel facilities to justify the expensive
fees they had paid for the school.
However, it was gathered that after Kay
Bello wrote the petition and submitted,
the leadership of the Students’
Representatives Council of the Nigerian
Law School in a letter to the
management disowned him, stating that
he was acting solely on his “own
volition” and not representing the
students’ interest.
Sources learnt that he was queried and
told to withdraw his petition but Kay
Bello refused.
After the conclusion of the court
attachment programme, Lawyard was
informed that there was a summary trial
but he failed to show up.
In a Phone Call with Online Newspaper
THEPAGE, Kay Bello confirmed the
expulsion from the Nigerian Law School
programme and added that he is
currently working on getting a bigger
platform to protest his expulsion.
According to him, “It is in connection
with the petition. They want me to beg
but you know that I will never beg.”
Meanwhile, the management has
published a poster containing his
expulsion information and pasted
around the law school campus.
Another colleague speaking revealed
that when Kay Bello was expelled, he
refused to leave and was still using the
school’s library when security officials
had to bundle him out of the institution.
