Reports state that the altercation started because the student was suspected of cheating on the test. She allegedly refused to leave the hall when the instructor told her to, stating that she would only cooperate after her phone was given back. The lecturer’s phone was allegedly broken by the student, which sparked a furious argument that eventually went physical. Witnesses in the hallway tried to step in, but after a series of strikes, the parties parted ways. Public reactions to the video have been mixed, with many denouncing the student’s disobedience and others criticising the lecturer’s choice to fight the student instead of letting security or university officials handle the situation.
The incident has sparked debate about authority, discipline, and the rising hostility in Nigerian universities, particularly during exams. Although disciplinary action against individuals involved is anticipated, university administration has not yet issued an official statement on the subject. The viral video keeps making the rounds on social media, igniting discussions on deference to authority, cheating on exams, and the behaviour of instructors and students in Nigerian universities.
