PDP Alleges Political Mobilisation at EBSU: Is Governor Nwifuru Behind It?

Fresh allegations claim Ebonyi State University staff and students were directed to attend events endorsing Governor Francis Nwifuru. The PDP says this blurs the line between public institutions and partisan politics. Critics ask whether these directives came with or without Nwifuru’s approval. They warn that any official backing would undermine academic freedom and institutional neutrality. The controversy has drawn in ASUU, NASU, and the Student Union Government. Observers question how universities can foster critical thinking if they appear linked to political campaigns. The PDP frames this as a test of democratic principles. It urges the Governor to clarify his position and distance public institutions from partisan influence.
