Varsity expels two students over gay practice

Confluence University of Science and Technology (CUSTECH) in Kogi State, Nigeria, expelled two students for alleged involvement in 'gay practice,' citing violations of the Students' Handbook. The students, Onumoko Hamza and Abdulazeez Eneji, received expulsion letters signed by the Deputy Registrar (Academics). The decision was made during the university's 31st Regular Meeting of the Senate after recommendations from the Students' Disciplinary Committee. Additionally, four other students were suspended for participating in a fight. The university emphasized its commitment to upholding discipline and warned students to adhere to its rules. In Nigeria, homosexual relationships are illegal under a 2014 law that imposes a 14-year prison sentence for same-sex sexual acts.
