Newgate University, Minna Debunks False Report on Alleged Death, Arrest

The Management of Newgate University, Minna, has issued a strong disclaimer, dismissing as false and misleading a report circulating on some media platforms alleging the death of a lecturer and the arrest of a nursing student linked to the institution.

In an official statement, the University categorically clarified that the deceased individual mentioned in the report is not a staff member of Newgate University, while the person described as a nursing student is also not a student of the institution.

The University warned media organisations and individuals against the spread of unverified information capable of damaging its reputation, stressing that such actions amount to gross unprofessionalism. Management demanded the immediate withdrawal of the false report and an unreserved public apology from the original source of the misinformation.

According to the statement, failure to comply will compel the University to pursue appropriate legal action against those responsible, including any platform that continues to circulate the false claims.

Newgate University further urged members of the public to disregard the report and rely solely on official communications from the University and relevant authorities for accurate and credible information.

The statement was signed by Management, Newgate University, Minna, reaffirming the institution’s commitment to truth, transparency, and the protection of its corporate integrity.
