The University of Calabar, UNICAL, on Wednesday said suspected kidnapper, John Ewa, popularly called “John Lyon” is not a graduate of the institution.
A statement issued in Calabar by the Registrar of the institution, Mr Gabriel Egbe, said the university’s management stumbled on the media report with dissatisfaction and described it as fallacious.
Ewa was arrested in connection with kidnapping activities by the Bayelsa Police Command and was subsequently paraded before the media.
