Tansian University has officially responded to viral reports circulating online, which alleged that a Catholic priest was caught engaging in inappropriate activity with a female student on campus. The institution has categorically denied these claims, describing them as false, misleading, and sensationalized.
Official Statement from the University
In a statement released by Rev. Fr. Peter Uche Onuoha, the university clarified that the incident in question was not related to any immoral act involving a priest and a student. Instead, it was linked to a security confrontation involving unidentified armed men and internal tensions surrounding the university’s leadership.
